New Jennifer De Leon work at basement

p120 Jenny de Leon

Choreographer/performer Jennifer De Leon’s new work, ‘Bugs and Worms and Desire’ will open at the Basement Theatre’s Upper Room for a three-night run from 25 April.

De Leon describes the new dance work as being about “What it takes... an intimate look into a journey. Determination, grace, grit.”

Dance writer Raewyn Whyte has described the dancer as “one of our most radical performers,” and show-goers can anticipate a work “radical to the point where either you will scream, or you will be enfolded into something that you too, know and walk.”

The show is directed by Kerry Wallis, with costuming by Olga Khimitch and poetry by Anthony Doerr.

‘Bugs and Worms and Desire’ is prefaced by a partnered work, ‘Swimmer’, and the two pieces will be presented without an interval.
