Conceived and produced by Cat Ruka Music by: James Risbey and Lucy Beeler. [1 hour] at The Basement, Auckland From 1 Mar 2013 to 3 Mar 2013 Reviewed by: Christina Houghton; |
The premiere of Cat Ruka's new full-length performance work Awkward Altars runs from the 1st to the 3rd of March 2013 at The Basement. Featuring a collective of 10 independent practitioners who between them have created over 100 performances, this work celebrates the beautifully dissonant nature of how we as Aucklanders relate to each other.
“I have deliberately brought together an unlikely ensemble of local artists who offer a multi-generational, inter-cultural and diverse spectrum of life experience,” says Ruka. “In this performance we take genuine risks and revel in the opportunity to cultivate our social differences.”
