In a landmark trans-Tasman collaboration, The New Zealand Dance Company and Co3 Contemporary Dance Australia honour one of our most revered choreographers, the late Douglas Wright, with the restaging of his iconic masterpiece Gloria.

Set to Vivaldi’s most famous sacred score, performed live by The New Zealand Symphony Orchestra and Voices New Zealand, this exhilarating performance bursts with joy and hope as dancers fly, twist and turn in a graceful airborne celebration of life.

This triple-bill also features two new creations: A Moving Portrait by Raewyn Hill, an intimate meditative reflection on ageing and grace, and Lament by Moss Te Ururangi Patterson, a powerful journey through memory and resilience. Together, these works honour the whakapapa of contemporary dance in Aotearoa.

Exclusive to Wellington – don’t miss this stunning celebration of life and legacy in dance and music.

Audio Described Performance: 14 March, 7.30pm, with a Touch Tour at 6.45pm
