The performance was in the Playhouse at the Arts Centre (Melbourne). Unfortunately it didn't meet our expectations. Now let me preface the rest of the post with the following: We're hardly connoisseurs of the fine arts. Instead we got the bulk of our prior exposure to contemporary dance through channel Ten's So You Think You Can Dance. I'm sure the purists out there would scoff at that but we wouldn't have even entertained the idea of seeing 360° were it not for the show. @@ -6,4 +6,4 @@ With that out of the way let me continue by starting at the end.

The music choices seemed inappropriate to even tell a story and the projected backdrops seemed to have no relationship with what was going on on-stage.

For example the sand covered skull with the sand falling in reverse to slowly reveal the skull. -Ignoring the aspects I didn't like there was still things that I did like.

I'm hoping that we will find another contemporary performance to see in the future that will live up to our perhaps uncultured expectations. \ No newline at end of file +Ignoring the aspects I didn't like there was still things that I did like.
