The group uses electronic and recorded, as well as live music, and
gives some importance to visual design and staging. This wide-ranging
perspective certainly lends considerable interest to its performances,
but the results are mixed.

Swan Lake is a bold, dynamic and clever interpretation. Bourne throws in elements of jazz, modern dance, Latin (including an energetic paso doble set to Tchaikovsky’s Spanish Dance) as well as ballroom and folk.

Nothing quite adds a sense of reality to a “night in the woods” like a
diegetic thrum of real cicadas. At one point a chorus of kookaburras
struck up, as if perfectly on cue to provide a fanfare for Titania’s
entrance!

The Spook was inspired by the true story of a young man recruited by
ASIO in the 1960s and asked to masquerade as a communist whilst spying
on his local party branch. However, as Reeves assures us in her program notes, The Spook is a totally fictional and sometimes ludicrous version of the story.

We
become engrossed in the web of intricacy of this Chilton 'clique' as we
are exposed to each boy's personalities and learn of their contribution
to the group dynamic.

Absence(s) is a work that moves between worlds – physically,
spatially and symbolically. We are taken, group by group, from the
street outside the theatre to another space.

Young
girls tumble across the stage, flip over and over, handle enormous
numbers of hula hoops, stand on large balls, and fly, twirl and spin
through the air. And this is only the overture.
