Music By Georges Bizet
The Australian Ballet
If You Close Your Eyes At The Opening Of Divergence You Will Hear The Familiar Strains Of Bizets LArlésienne And Perhaps Imagine Yourself At A Traditional Performance. Whatever You Do, Dont Close Your Eyes. Not For A Second.
Divergence Is An Adrenalin-charged And Provocative Work And Must Be Seen In Its Entirety. From The Opening Movement, You Will Be Startled By Welchs Vision.
Contradictions Abound. It Is Both Light And Playful, Alien And Sensuous, Serene And Chaotic, Cool And Explosive. Stanton Welch Believes In Classical Ballet. Yet Your Expectations Will Be Denied And Preconceptions Challenged By This, His Most Original Creation.
In Welchs Own Words, "classical Ballet Is Like Any Living Creature, It Requires Fresh And Dangerous Sustenance To Give It Life."
