7-18 May @ PICA ·
Presented by Amrita Hepi ·
It’s your move
A Call to Dance is a participatory dance work that’s all about you.
Join acclaimed choreographer and dancer Amrita Hepi for a yarn about heritage, belonging, public expression and cultural authenticity. Together you’ll have fun and open conversation about some big issues facing us all, and come up with a small movement of personal rebellion: a move that’s all about you.
Each evening, she’ll perform the moves discovered from the community that day. At the end of her residency, Amrita will create a performance that captures the character and people of Perth.
This is A Call To Dance.
