Michelle Ryan & Torque Show
T01336858628
Michelle Ryan started dancing when she was four years old, and went on to be one of Australia's most celebrated dancers touring the world for nearly ten years performing and working with Meryl Tankard. At 30, at the peak of her career, she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. Although MS has irreparably damaged Michelle's physical prowess, it cannot undermine a lifetime of physical artistry and creative expression. In Intimacy Michelle shares her most private thoughts and feelings in a very public way. Created in collaboration with theatre makers Torque Show and with a live score by Lavender Vs Rose, performing alongside dancer Vincent Crowley, this dance theatre work is a fictional stage for Michelle's real-life daily experiences; a world where highly awkward, absurdly humorous and deeply moving moments manifest in unexpected ways. A world where other people aren't sure where to look and how to help.
