Duets

Tempo is thrilled to bring back Duets, a celebration of the art of dancing two-by-two. This sell-out show features the Royal New Zealand Ballet in Andrew Simmons’ A Song in the Dark, Dancing With the Stars favourites Brian Jones and Beatrice Faumuina, TMC tap crew and many more.

Tempo celebrates partner dancing by beautifully, humorously and dramatically exploring the space and relationship between two bodies. You may even recognise a few familiar faces from Dancing With the Stars who share the floor with other movers and shakers to dazzle and amaze – two by two.

Featuring the fancy footwork of the Royal New Zealand Ballet, Brian Jones, Beatrice Faumuina and Nerida Cortese, TMC tap stars Andrew Cesan and Simon Watts, Justin Haiu and Tama Jarman, Saonie Greer from Viva Latino Salsa group and many more.

"Twenty-something ex-RNZB dancer Andrew Simmons reveals a growing choreographic stature with his duet Through to You. The piece has a soft and delicate mood, reflecting the music... Tracy Grant Lord’s design sets the dancers in metallic green as glistening forest fronds. Each dancer follows their own intricate pathway, building to intense unity."
