TRISHA BROWN: FROM ALL ANGLES
TRISHA BROWN DANCE COMPANY
AUSTRALIAN
PREMIERE SEASON
Over three nights, the Trisha
Brown Dance Company perform
two programs of Trisha Brown’s
most celebrated and enduring
works. Traversing nearly the
full span of her career, these
programs reveal Trisha Brown’s
signature approaches and constant
experimentation.

This exhilarating survey of
Brown’s pieces spans the silent
masterpieces Solo Olos and
Watermotor and her expansion
into more complex and theatrical
territory – including her first
foray into dance with music in
Son of Gone Fishin’ – along with
collaborations such as Set & Reset,
created in concert with designer
Robert Rauschenberg and musician
Laurie Anderson.
