En Route To Success
The Producing Project presents: En Route – a three part performance journey debuting original work from New Zealand's freshest choreographers. The En Route series meets you in the sombre depths of our final hours and moves you towards the celebration of a new life (holding your hand through all the ups and downs that lie in between).
After the highly successful Live Series (2011), The Producing Project continues to provide a platform for young producers to hone their skills in a practical environment. The Producing Project is Auckland's answer to the lack of producers to facilitate dance and theatre in Auckland. Its participants present a series of performances that not only provide hands on learning for the producing team, but an invaluable platform for emerging dance artists in New Zealand to put their work on show.
Go To June 2nd--‐ 7pm, June 3rd--‐2pm & 7pm - Kenneth Myers Centre, 74 Shortland St, Auckland
In To July 14th--‐7pm, July 15th--‐2pm&7pm - Musgrove Studio, 8 Alfred St, Auckland
Come To Sep 1st--‐7pm Sep 2nd--‐2pm & 7pm - Fale Pasifika, 20 Wynyard St
The Producing Project looks forward to presenting a series that will challenge, amaze and excite you about the bright future of New Zealand Dance. Tickets $15/10 or $35/$25 for the season. Season tickets only available until June 1st. Season ticket holders go in the draw to win a double pass to Atamira Dance Company or The New Zealand Dance Companies premiere season!
