Black Grace presents
Verse 2
Choreographed by Neil Ieremia
Verse 2 is an exciting collection of the latest short works and excerpts from New Zealand’s leading Pacific contemporary dance company Black Grace. Choreographed by Founder and Artistic Director Neil Ieremia, Verse 2 is full of rhythm, energy and grace.
“A polished, pungent, bone-crunchingly physical
and perfectly executed alchemy of music, muscle and
motion.”
New Zealand Herald, 2010
Verse 2 features an eclectic soundscape including traditional Pacific music and body percussion as well as pieces by Jimi Hendrix, Johnny Cash, and Johann Sebastian Bach.
“In a memorable
performance, the thrilling and brilliantly executed New
Zealand Company Black Grace integrated many aspects of
modern dance with Samoan and South Pacific indigenous art
forms. The result was no cut-and-paste assemblage, but a
new art form.”
