Colossus

Internationally renowned Australian choreographer Stephanie Lake will make a triumphant return to Brisbane with Colossus, an exhilarating contemporary dance performance, at Brisbane Powerhouse from April 17-20, 2024.

Following sell-out seasons across the country with Manifesto, the multi-award winning choreographer returns to Brisbane with a monumental new work, featuring 50 dancers and soundtracked by legendary composer Robin Fox.

Colossus is a mind-boggling feat of living architecture as a horde of black-clad bodies explodes into action, sometimes battling for control, sometimes excluding individuals, sometimes existing in harmony, always thrilling.

In Brisbane, Colossus will be performed by local dancers from Queensland Ballet’s Pre-Professional & Jette Parker Young Artist Programs and Queensland University of Technology (Dance) students.

Colossus sold-out its premiere season at Arts Centre Melbourne and has since toured Sydney, Perth, France, Taipei, Germany, Hong Kong, Geneva, Montreal, Toronto and Buenos Aires receiving standing ovations, five-star reviews and rapturous response from audiences.
