Written on the Body

Inspired by iconic writer Anais Nin, this visceral dance theatre work explores notions of female identity and literature’s power to shape our lives. With creative stagecraft, innovative video projection and beautiful physicality, Written on the Body is a messy, potent and celebratory work, a love affair with the written word.

The ensemble of 6 female artists were awarded BEST FEMALE SUPPORTING ACTRESS in Geelong’s 2014 Entertainment Geelong Awards. The company also received nominations for BEST DIRECTOR (Lyndel Quick) and MOST INNOVATIVE FEATURE (Melinda Chapman for media design & Kate Kelly for Lighting Design)
