Nine dancers. Nine drummers. Nine drum kits.

Ferocious dancing and electrifying sound. An explosive “tattoo to optimism.” Manifesto, a one of a kind performance, presents the merging of dancing and drumming in front of a towering watermelon-pink velvet curtain. In precision concert, they unleash rebellion, command obedience, radiate wonder, and show tenderness.

An impressive display of how strongly rhythm and movement are intertwined.

PRAISE FOR

Manifesto
"Watching the premiere of Manifesto feels less like viewing a performance and more like witnessing an explosive, ecstatic and primal phenomenon."
In Daily
"Manifesto is another triumph for Lake, a perfectly realised work that celebrates not just the relationship between music and dance, but also the joy of being alive. In these distressing times, we all need a dose of Manifesto’s optimism."
Dance Australia
"An hour of unsullied bliss."
