THE RECORDING (2011)

In February - April 2011 Sandra Parker Dance commenced the development of a new project The Recording with funding assistance from Arts Victoria and the City of Port Phillip.

Choreographer/Director: Sandra Parker
Composer: Steven Heather
Projection Design: Rhian Hinkley
Lighting Design: Jenny Hector
Dancers: Deanne Butterworth, Carlee Mellow,
Phoebe Robinson
On-Stage Performer/Technician: Annabelle Balharray

The Recording is a full-length performance about making a film.  A dynamic collaboration with leading Australian and International artists, the stage becomes a film set as cast and crew are placed on stage together. Three performers prepare for, rehearse and perform scenes based on 'actor movement' while the trick of immersive, full-blown cinematic soundscapes and emotional, dramatic lighting transform the action – a rehearsal becomes cinema – but what happens when the scene is over?

The Recording is planned to premiere in 2012.
