Adelaide Fringe Presents Premiere of Maison De Danse

Maison De Danse (House of Dance) is making its Adelaide Fringe premiere this year on Friday 1, 8 and 15 March from 9pm at The Hindley 149 Hindley St. Adelaide. This inclusive 'dance hall' style community event is ready to excite, inspire and dazzle audiences with its own unique curated program of musical performances, dance and entertainment. Celebrating the 'joie de vivre' of house-ballroom culture, the 3 nights are the culmination of a distinctive creative process drawing primarily from Music, Fashion and Dance with influences spanning Design, Digital Technology and Queer Culture as well as the mind-body work of Rudolf Laban.

Becky affirms that 'Maison De Danse is about self-expression through dance, music and creativity while believing in love for love.'

Working together with Filipino-Australian stylist, choreographer and artistic director Ben-Hur Winter @wani_niyawa (aka drag impresario Chic Mystique), come through to Adelaide's state-of-the-art music venue, The Hindley Front Bar where the sassy show cast will perform together with a stellar line-up of local DJ's as the purveyors of Adelaide's renowned electronic music scene.

Ellicia says 'It's exciting to be part of Maison De Danse and to share a slice of South Australia's cultural diversity in an international arts festival environment. It helps put Adelaide on the map while supporting a legacy of community building.'
