Triptych is a three-part programme of dance works by Australian choreographer-director Lewis Major and his mentor, British dancemaker Russell Maliphant OBE.
Each piece is visually rich, revelling in the artists’ obsessions with spatial awareness and the body’s trajectory in space, and producing a scintillating synthesis of movement and light.
Lewis Major is an award-winning Bungandidj and Ngarrindjeri choreographer, director, and creative entrepreneur with a background in sheep farming and a foreground in contemporary dance theatre. He honed his skills in dancemaking over a decade spent working with seminal contemporary dance makers Akram Khan, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, Russell Maliphant, Hans van den Broeck (Cie Soit/Les Ballets C de la B), Damien Jalet and Hofesh Shechter, amongst others. He was also a founding member of Aakash Odedra Company.
Russell Maliphant OBE is one of this generation’s foremost choreographers and dance artists. Multiple award-winning, infinitely creative, eternally curious, the Daily Express dubs him “Britain’s leading modern dance creator”.
