If you had an empty space to do with whatever you pleased, what on earth would that be?

Footnote Dance, New Zealand's national contemporary dance company, is pleased to announce the homecoming of one of New Zealand's most outstanding choreographers Claire O'Neil, presenting a new work Mtyland for the 2008 Footnote Forte Season.

Forte is an initiative by Footnote Dance to present work by an outstanding choreographer. Claire O'Neil returns home to New Zealand after a decade of dance performance and choreography with some of Europe's finest dance institutions.

O'Neil's Mtyland explores the notion that in "nothingness there is everything" – if you had an empty space, what would you do with it?

In the title is additional meaning, as O'Neil is returning home to raise her newborn first child, Georgie Rose. Is the country she returns to, the country of her birth and the country to raise her child, a mighty land? An empty land? Or is it whatever we decide it to be?
