About Kunstkamer

From the collective creative genius of choreographers Paul Lightfoot, Sol León, Crystal Pite and Marco Goecke, Kunstkamer returns to Australia by popular demand. Overwhelmingly magnificent in scale, Kunstkamer invites audiences to marvel at the endless possibilities of art. Mind bending technical storytelling blend with expansive movement to create one of the most challenging productions of the modern era.

Inspired by the 18th-century cabinet of curiosities, Kunstkamer draws together diverse elements – stark movement, song, film, spoken word – into an eclectic and fascinating whole. A series of scenes bound together by recurring motifs and characters, it features music by an extraordinary array of distinct composers from Beethoven to Bach to Britten, Janice Joplin to Joby Talbot.

An experience beyond the conventional and into the unknown, Kunstkamer’s choreography moves from humorous solos to intimate pas de deux, culminating in epic yet intricate waves of curious movement. Like a modern museum curated with wit and incisive intelligence, each section of this magnificent production contains multitudes, referencing dance theatre traditions while exploring new frontiers of expression.
