Performance | Global Dance Connections series

Dumb Instrument Dance

Rebel Grace

An exciting world premiere from choreographer Ziyian Kwan, Rebel Grace explores gentle transgressions as acts of resistance, empowerment and gratitude. Expect scenes of rupture, repair and sweet subversion. Rebel Grace is conjured by Kwan in collaboration with dance artists Lisa Mariko Gelley, Andrea Nann, Justin Calvadores, Juolin Lee and Rianne Svelnis . These inimitable performers traverse the rhythm and rhyme of imagery, text and movement – in conversation with live music from multi-instrumentalist Roxanne Nesbitt and Taiko artist E. Kage.
