Presented under black light and featuring projections and puppets by Michael Curry (part of the Lion King design team), Moses Pendleton’s surreal world of dance and optical illusion is an exceptionally inventive production that will enthral all ages.

Opus Cactus - T857033802A spectacular mix of dance acrobatics, illusion and imagination, Opus Cactus is a sensual celebration of the natural beauty and indigenous creatures of Earth's exotic desert regions. Dance and theatre lovers of all ages will be inspired by the hypnotic whirlwind of mesmerizing movement as 10 agile dancers create a breath-taking and beautiful world inspired by the Sonoran Desert in Arizona. Opus Cactus also features puppet creations by Michael Curry, one of the creators for Disney's The Lion King. Tumbleweeds tumble, lizards leap and rattlesnakes slither as the desert landscapes dance to life. Moved by the giant saguaro cactus of the Southwest, Pendleton's catalytic choreography blossoms into indelible desert visions, from the fluttering cactus wren to the slithering human Gila monster. Featuring Momix's trademark mind-boggling and body-bending images, Opus Cactus is performed to an eclectic soundtrack that includes haunting Native American sounds, the Swingle Singers, Bach and Brian Eno.Choreographer Moses Pendleton. | |
