On Your Marks 2013

2013

Stompin in association with Ten Days on the Island presents ON YOUR MARKS.

On Your Marks is a roving fusion of dance and video exploring the psychological and sociological aspects of competition, and the synergies of dance and sport. Rivalry, parochialism, voyeurism, participation, endurance, obsession and passion are investigated through the eyes of young Tasmanians, with the results played out in the gladiatorial surrounds of Aurora Stadium.

Saturday 23, Sunday 24, Monday 25, Tuesday 26 March 8pm.
