Edge Exploring and celebrating new identities, new design, and new thoughts
Funded by the National Lotteries Commission and the National Arts Council, EDGE explores and celebrates new identities, new design, and new thoughts. The season will feature new works by Siwela Sonke choreographers who have created dance and visual imagery that offer a multi-layered, crisp and vivid view of an emerging South Africa.
EDGE is one of the rare theatre seasons for Siwela Sonke Dance Theatre who have become best known for performances outside of conventional theatre spaces.
EDGE will offer audiences five short new works of 15 minutes each, choreographed by Siwela Sonke company members. The programme features choreographers Sbusiso Gantsa, Siyabonga Mhlongo and Mxolisi Nkomonde showcasing works alongside Siwela Sonke's Neliswa Rushualang and Ntombi Gasa.
EDGE forms part of Siwela Sonke's programme of creating a space for new choreographic languages and identities to be born and developed.
EDGE takes place at the Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre 18 - 21 FEB 2016.
