Footnote Dance: 2009 Made in New Zealand

2009Made in New Zealand is a unique showcase of original home-grown dance works set to New Zealand music, becoming one of the most anticipated dance series in New Zealand through its combination of top kiwi choreographers with the finest local music

Footnote is unveiling the 2009 season of its celebrated dance series Made in New Zealand featuring graceful and gut-busting dance works by some of this country's best contemporary choreographers including Michael Parmenter, Malia Johnston, Raewyn Hill, Jesse Wikiriwhi, Deirdre Tarrant, Katie Burton and Sarah Foster.

The Made in New Zealand series is unique because, unlike most contemporary dance works, each piece is a collaboration between the choreographer and composer, who toil back and forth to create an original piece from the ground up, rather than choreographers setting dance works to already-composed pieces of music.

Composers featured in the 2009 season include Fly My Pretties, Dudley Benson, David Long, Eden Mulholland, Josh Rutter, Andy Foster and Josh Tilsley and Sally Nicholas.
