SDCo 2011 UPDATE

SDCO kick off the year with two free performances as part of Sydney Festival’s Festival Inside Out in Parramatta on 21 January and Penrith on 23 January. Joining together with the Australian Chamber Orchestra for a magical double bill, Sydney Dance Company will be presenting Rafael Bonachela’s beautiful 6 Breaths . Performed outdoors as the sun sets, this work is set to a score by Ezio Bosso with video art by Tim Richardson. First performed at the Sydney Theatre in March 2010, 6 Breaths has since toured to Venice and Shanghai and will enjoy further touring in 2011.
