Footnote New Zealand Dance, Aotearoa’s leading contemporary dance company, are bringing their critically acclaimed show If You Know You Know to eight centres across the country, with a Gisborne date at the War Memorial Theatre next month.

“IYKYK is a show to inspire the next generation of dancers in New Zealand. It’s physical; the dancers never stop moving, showing off their athleticism, “ says company artistic manager Anita Hunziker. “It’s dark. There are fight scenes, romance scenes, and a red clock on the wall that is counting us down to the end of the world.”

With a passion for growing audiences for live dance, Footnote has ensured that this is a dance show everyone will enjoy.

“Our mission is to enrich Aotearoa by amplifying dance as an art form. What better way to do that than take the highest quality shows to as many communities as possible,” says the company’s general manager, Zoë Nicholson.

The tour will begin in Wellington and go on to Palmerston North, Hamilton, Auckland, Whakatāne, Gisborne, Queenstown and Christchurch.

The show is a double bill of contemporary dance works  by choreographers Holly Newsome and Forest Kapo.

The dancers will take master classes to teach budding young dancers in Gisborne, supporting them on their journey.

Founded in 1985, Footnote Dance is Aotearoa’s longest-standing contemporary dance company and is a trailblazer for the dance community.
