MALTHOUSE THEATRE PRESENTS

EN TRANCE

CREATED AND PERFORMED BY YUMI UMIUMARE
DRAMATURGE MOIRA FINUCANE
MEDIA ARTIST BAMBANG NURCAHYADI
INSTALLATION ARTIST NAOMI OTA
SOUND DESIGNER IAN KITNEY
COSTUME DESIGNER DAVID ANDERSON
LIGHTING DESIGNER KERRY IRELAND

From her many performances of The Burlesque Hour around the globe, to Malthouse Theatre’s very own presentation of DasShoku Hora!!, Yumi Umiumare’s electrifying performance style is in demand the world over.

In this bold new work, Umiumare is set to detonate her extraordinary vision from the international to the other-worldy as she thrusts us into the twisted corridors of the un-living. At times brutally visceral, the performance is counterbalanced with the purity of digital painting produced live with her collaborating artists, Bambang Nurcahyadi and Naomi Ota.

EnTrance extends even further Umiumare’s diverse dance vocabulary, plummeting into the cracks where the spirit and the body are propelled into another existence. Umiumare takes us from unsettling moments of physical extremity to magical images of reflective serenity.
