A transcendent invocation.
Award-winning choreographer Trà Mi Dinh premieres a mesmerising new work inspired by one of humanity’s oldest and most mysterious obsessions: the number 7.
Fresh from acclaimed commissions with Sydney Dance Company and Lucy Guerin Inc, Trà Mi creates choreography that bends our perception of time, rhythm and expectation. Her latest work, 7 Dances for 7 People, brings together 7 of Naarm’s most exceptional dancers in a hypnotic ritual of precision, endurance and devotion.
Across cultures and throughout history, the number seven has symbolised perfection and totality. 7 is seen as the union of the spiritual (3) and the physical (4); offering a compelling lens through which to consider the act of dancing. Possessed by this equation and driven by the cultural mythology surrounding the number, 7 Dances for 7 People transforms numerical obsession into movement.
