Kage

KAGE was established in 1997 by Victorian College of the Arts Dance graduates Kate Denborough and Gerard Van Dyck. Kate and Gerard formed a creative partnership based on a shared desire to create original works that progress the form of dance. This took place by collaborating with extraordinary artists and communities to find original ways to present dance in new contexts. KAGE explored the development of arresting visual languages, the parallel creation of choreography and music and the dramatic potential of dance and extreme physicality with irreverence and humour.

On the cusp of KAGE’s twentieth birthday, the desire for continuous exploration and discovery along with a collaborative ideology is still the central focus. KAGE creates performances that relate and respond to current social thinking and strives to develop an unparalleled and distinctive sensibility, style and aesthetic for dance theatre.
