TANTRUM for 6 by Harrison Ritchie-Jones
 

Thunderstorm, baby born… dun dun 

Breakout choreographer Harrison Ritchie-Jones (CUDDLE) is making waves with his eclectic and unconventional approach to dance. Clashing forms and styles with high technical skill, he’s using dance as a frame for absurdity, physical virtuosity, and surreal storytelling. 

TANTRUM for 6 thrusts us into a parallel universe where 6 babies are born from a thunderstorm, each with a natural ability to dance together. Like young goslings learning to fly, they dive straight into the challenges of their choreographed destiny. 

Featuring an ensemble of expert dancers, TANTRUM for 6 becomes a guttural primal scream—a mesmerizing storm of movement that captures raw emotions, chaos and grace. This dynamic dance work considers what it is to be human, twisting and reshaping 6 paths in a choreography of elegance, danger, ecstasy, sadness, and exhaustion. "the inauguration of a whole new aesthetic.” - Andrew Fuhrmann, The Age

    Going from that show to Mary said what she said was like going from a Mozart piano concerto to one of the more repetitive pieces by Philip Glass.

    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.

    There’s a palpable playfulness to these performances, disciplined, drilled and delightful. There’s fire, bite and fun and lots of kissing.
