Event Series: Wet Hard Long

The Australian Ballet: Wet Hard Long

10 October @ 8:00 pm - 9:30 pm AEDT

Bending innuendo and oozing feminine resilience atop 8-inch heels, Wet Hard Long exhibits the enduring femme body under scrutiny of a patriarchal society.

Edging the audience towards the promise of relief, two dancers undertake exacting physical feats. Their bodies contend with obstacles, objects and elements – each, more impossible than the last. Extended from Large’s 2022 Keir Choreographic Award- winning work (Wet Hard), Wet Hard Long is an epic display of grit, glamour, and glistening jaw-clenching stamina. A slippery endurance piece demanding perseverance from performers and viewers in a tribute to the strenuous expectations which femme bodies continue to overcome.
