About the piece:
Can we be ‘in the moment’?
NOW NOW NOW is a new full length dance performance by choreographer Luke George that proposes this question to its performers and audience. We seek to be in the moment, yet through the pursuit of this, we move further and further away from it. George is drawn to the paradox of this notion and how it parallels the act of performance – which is happening both in real time between the audience and the performer, and yet is highly constructed. In the presence of an audience, 3 performers will attempt to be physically and mentally in the moment – NOW NOW NOW!

“Luke George in particular is a commitment machine, throwing himself into the most difficult of places performatively, he endangers all for the sake of the work and I love the journey of that risk and am willing to take it with him time and time again.”
