The Movement
Join us at The Movement for an antidote to apathy and inaction! The Movement is a quadruple bill of brand-new dance work from Footnote New Zealand Dance that amplifies important conversations about our world.
The ever rising tide, the future of biotech, an acknowledgement of painful experiences and our collective approach to change. In combination with inspiring conversations, each of these provocations are explored in The Movement through powerful performances by Footnote’s stellar company dancers. The Movement will stir you to embrace the collective momentum that is needed in our world to change things for the better.
