No matter the forecast\, the excitement will be full speed ahead! \n  \n \nEvent Schedule: \nDownloadable schedule \n \nInsurance: \n \n Spectator Contact Details \nWe understand that the current form may feel repetitive\, and we’re actively working on updating the website to improve your experience.

SUMMARY:Sydney Dance Company performance of 'Continuum' - 28th October\, 2025 @12pm - recommended age 8yrs-12yrs
DESCRIPTION:Continuum is a bold exploration of the ever-shifting cadence that binds us to the world\, inspired by the constant flow of movement and transformation that mirrors the evolving nature of life. \nThrough the visionary perspectives of choreographers Rafael Bonachela\, Tra Mi Dinh and Stephen Page AO\, this triple bill offers three unique reflections on humanity\, light and our place in the cycle of existence. \nContinuum sweeps across a spectrum of lived experience\, from the fleeting beauty of twilight to the elemental force of breath. It is a journey through time and place\, where movement echoes with the ebb and flow of life’s narratives. A celebration of the continuous journey of transformation and the subtle forces of nature that connect us all. \nAn enchanting world premiere from Rafael Bonachela will draw upon his signature choreographic style\, to explore the limits of emotional and physical expression. To conjure a dynamic sorcery between the quiet and the monumental\, the intimate to the expansive. \nIn Somewhere Between Ten and Fourteen\, Tra Mi Dinh exposes the delicate space between day and night. A fleeting moment of transition where bodies drift and pulse\, surrendering to the ever-shifting movement of time and light. An ode to change that captures the transience of life’s continual shifts. \nFor the first time\, Unungkati Yantatja – one with the other\, brings together the powerful creative forces of Stephen Page with esteemed composer and leading Yidaki player William Barton. Page’s choreography embodies Barton’s song line\, calling out to land\, sea\, sky\, and creature\, whilst carefully connecting us all to the spirit of our creation breath. Barton will be joined live in performance by the award-wining Omega Ensemble\, who commissioned the underlying powerful score. Blown gently across the stage\, Unungkati Yantatja is a dedication to the force of our earthly breaths\, intrinsically connecting us to country\, to each other\, and the continual rhythm of life. \nPerformance duration: 60 minutes.  \nYOU MUST BE A SHEN MEMBER TO BOOK TICKETS.  PLEASE ONLY BOOK FOR YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY. \nTicket sales will end on the 12th August\, unless sold out beforehand. \nPlease ensure you choose the correct ticket option when you are paying.  People choosing Companion Card ticket must email a copy of the Companion Card to SHEN immediately after booking ticket(s).
