The Cradle of Spirits - Tasmania ...

Invited Guest Choreographer for the restaging of The Cradle of Spirits with the dancers of Tasdance, Tasmania’s leading contemporary dance company, as part of the internationally renowned Ten Days on the Island Festival.

Sthan's choreography is a distinctive contemporary Pacific style of movement blending French flair and élan with Kanak rhythms and traditions, creating a sensual, physical and earthy body language that is unique to his work.

Highly theatrical, with the music of Vivaldi that sets the scene for a work which sweeps from traditional European influences to those of the Pacific islands. Kabar-Louet achieves a work of great beauty though the use of lighting, simple props and sound, most notably when the dancers bathe and cleanse themselves in water."
