두물머리 Dumulmeori (where two rivers meet) is an electrifying bill of contemporary dance from Australia and Korea that showcases the compelling voices of four distinctive choreographer-performers: Alisdair Macindoe and Michelle Heaven (Melbourne); Haneul Jung (Seoul); and Chosul Kim (Daegu).

Fresh from a tour to three Korean cities and a season in Melbourne, this program of evocative solo works pulses with vibrancy, precision, and experimentation. Be transported by movement that transcends borders - where artistry speaks across cultures, uniting us through shared experience and dissolving boundaries.

Conceived and curated by Brendan O'Connell, this is the first iteration of a multi-year intercultural exchange with Australian and Korean artists and institutions, fostering deeper artistic dialogue between the two nations’ dance communities.
