CONJAH and Auckland Live present
DARK!DARK!DARK!
CONJAH + collaborators
Unreal yet eerily familiar, this work overturns reality, leading audiences into unseen worlds existing alongside our own. Timelines blur as creatures, cosmic forces and fractured memories emerge within our social landscape, inviting deeper embodiment, power and imagination.
Three performers push beyond physical limits through genre-bending dance, character distortion, live Metalcore music, experimental sound, costume, and monumental light and darkness design, creating an unforgettable performance experience.
Lineages of darkness, defiance, transformation and possibility converge in a spectral terrain. DARK!DARK!DARK!, the unfleshed phenomena from CONJAH and their collaborators, makes its highly anticipated Tāmaki Makaurau debut.
