EVENT PASSED
Akira Kasai
Japan
Heralded as the “Nijinsky of butoh”, Japan's legendary Akira Kasai brings to Melbourne his tour-de-force work Pollen Revolution.
Beginning with what may seem like traditional Japanese dance, this daring solo performance sees costumes fly away, madness unleashed and representations of gender probed. Pollen Revolution is a masterly work from a choreographer who is still reshaping and reinventing butoh itself.
Part of the Dancehouse Japan Focus alongside Matou and Good Luck.
