“Always exhilarating… ‘Bonachela has harnessed the strength and skills of the dancers in a thrillingly fluent piece that maintains its vibrancy over its hour-long journey” – Sydney Morning Herald

“Akin to fireworks exploding… An omnipotent emotional journey that puts the audience in the driver’s seat.’” – Daily Telegraph

Between People Flows Energy Beyond Words

Since its 2012 premiere, Rafael Bonachela’s multi award winning tour de force has left critics and audiences speechless and must be experienced to be believed.

Crackling with exultant power and intricate physical conversation, a pulsing pixelated backdrop, baroque-meets-electronica soundtrack and fragments of poetry, 2 One Another is a bright hour of irrefutable sensuality, delivering a visceral charge that has rocked audiences around the world.

2 One Another is the result of an exciting collaboration between Sydney Dance Company Artistic Director and choreographer Rafael Bonachela, set and costume designer Tony Assness and composer/music director Nick Wales, with poetry by Samuel Webster.

The result is an exultant and moving study of human interaction and relationships, 2 One Another explores the couple (2), the individual(One), and the group (Another), in “A performance of astonishing stamina and physicality.” (Limelight).

The performance is set against a stunning digital backdrop of motion design and animation, featuring an exceptional soundtrack – seamlessly encompassing Baroque and electronica – shot through with fragments of poetry created and utilised during the soundtrack development of the work.

2 One Another premiered in Sydney in March 2012, and has since toured nationally and to nine cities across North America, South America and Russia.
