Nine dancers. Nine drummers. Nine drum kits. One exhilarating, heart-pounding show.
On a striking pink set reminiscent of Busby Berkley, a team of explosive drummers sits behind a troupe of astonishing dancers, in an impressive show of percussive and physical force. It’s an irresistible embrace of music, rhythm and motion you must see – and feel – for yourself.
Sold-out across Australia and fresh from its triumphant international premiere in Germany, this whiplash of pure, combustible energy comes bottled for the Festival stage. An infectious ‘tattoo to optimism’, Manifesto slams together electrifying dancing and huge, raw sound that will leave you shaking.
