AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Time, memory and a sense of place in iconic Queensland dance. Whether a place of residence, refuge or comfort, home is where the heart is... a place that allows you to breathe and dream. Enter the emotionally charged memories of a young man's past as Expressions Dance Company's six incredible dancers and three gifted musicians perform Natalie Weir's first full-length work. With a breathtaking new score by John Rodgers, Where the Heart Is features dynamic, physical and emotionally resonant music and dance. Set against the iconic remnants of an old 'Queenslander',with lyrics inspired by David Malouf's 12 Edmondstone Street, this multi-arts performance is deeply imbued with a sense of place and memories of home.'
