Rewards for the Tribe's Friday 28 October performance will be Auslan interpreted. An Auslan interpreter will be available in the foyer of the Odeon from 7:00pm (30 minutes prior to the performance), and during the performance they will interpret the minimal spoken elements of the show.After a sold-out and critically acclaimed run at Rising Festival in Melbourne Australia, Rewards for the Tribe is going on tour to Restless’ hometown, Adelaide.
For millennia, artists have strived to articulate the human experience in divine forms. Images of ‘perfection’ are everywhere. But we live in an imperfect world full of unpredictability and wonky angles.
In Rewards for the Tribe, two of the country’s most influential and innovative dance companies Chunky Move and Restless Dance Theatre, collaborate for the first time. Together they ask, “is there such a thing as utopia by design?”
Five dancers, with and without disability, wrestle with the archetypes of divine geometry laid out by the Old Masters. Together they bend, crumple and reorganise a Mondrian-inspired whimsical objects, that both reference and topple idealistic modernist forms. Rewards for the Tribe celebrates the imaginations of artists while embracing life’s exquisite chaos.
The Odeon Theatre is wheelchair accessible.
Please note, this performance contains sudden loud noises and strobing effects.
Rewards for the Tribe is an ambitious collaborative dance work for performers with and without disability by Chunky Move (Melbourne) and Restless Dance Theatre (Adelaide).
Rewards for the Tribe has been co-commissioned by Warwick Arts Centre and Coventry UK City of Culture. Rewards for the Tribe is supported by the Australian Government as part of the UK/Australia Season 2021-22.
