Slack tide is the turning point when a body of tidal water can seem uncertain as to whether it is coming in or going out. While surface water may be deceptively calm at this time, below the surface huge divergent forces are at work.
‘Sarah Day’s poems… enable me, the reader, to recapture the lost intensity of my own perceptions. And the words are chosen to detonate differently each time I come to rest on them.’ – Robert Dessaix

From The Other Side of Chaos
1-2 December 2022, The Odeon, Norwood
From the other side of chaos… is a deep dive into the space between music, movement, materials and spoken word. It’s an exploration of the world that is created when all these mediums meet on an equal playing field, and clash and coalesce into something entirely different and unexpected. The work is driven by no one artistic medium or narrative but seeks to discover a new common language out of the ‘chaos’ of improvisational experimentation. Through tearing apart our expectations of artistic mediums, it searches for what brings us together, both as artists and as people.
The context of the performance is durational and self-curatorial, allowing the audience to move freely between the main performance area where they inhabit the same world as the artists, to the foyer where they can relax and reflect, whilst also witnessing the work from a different perspective.
Directed by Australian Dance Theatre’s 2022 Associate Artist, Tobiah Booth-Remmers, with music by Soundstream’s Gabriella Smart, Stuart Patterson and Alex Dearman.
Also featuring Isobel Stolinksi, Olenka Toroshenko, Zachary Lopez, Darci O’Rourke, Jada Narkle and Zoe Wozniak.
