Performing Arts in North Carolina

 The 605 Collective has rapidly emerged as one of Canada’s hottest companies in recent years by drawing inspiration from the colliding worlds of urban and contemporary dance. Their dynamic dance language speaks to both hip-hop and modern dance audiences, and this summer they will make their ADF debut with their 2009 work, Audible.  In this highly kinetic dance performers jump, dive, collide, and tumble to transform movement into an entertaining contact sport. Set to electronic soundscapes and experimental club beats, this electrifying work investigates the often abrasive ways our lives are forced to connect through the 21st century’s hyper-communication and the resulting loss of social skills and basic human interaction.
