This show belongs to the Adelaide Fringe 2024 season. This season is now over.

Glitter Apocalypse - A girl with grungy, colourful, metallic makeup stares determinedly at the viewer. She looks fierce and wild. A golden metallic streak of face paint runs along her cheek like a scar.

Glitter Apocalypse

Dance • Theatre
South Australia • World Premiere

'Glitter Apocalypse' is a high-energy, hard-hitting dance and storytelling performance rooted in authentic street dance culture. Featuring all-South Australian performers, including members of Adelaide's premier crew FREAK NATION, this production showcases the best of Adelaide's thriving underground dance scene.

Enter a post-apocalyptic sunscape where a ragtag crew must fight the encroaching forces of conformity and control. Through dance, our heroes must reconnect with their own truths and with each other to save themselves from oblivion. 

Be electrified by dance styles including hip-hop, waacking, popping, animation, robot, and house. Expect raw, elemental movement to the pulsing beats of hip-hop, trap, and K-pop, buzzy electronic bass, and luminescent synths, all drenched in glitter.

 

Presented by: Kate Downton and Small Flock

Kate Downton is the fearless leader of the female-led DMNDZ street dance crew and first female member of FREAK ELITES, the most prestigious freestyle squad in Adelaide. She infuses waacking with hard-hitting hip-hop and house, passionate storytelling, and a fierce inner strength.

Small Flock blossomed in South Australia in 2021 with a hunger to produce invigorating artist-driven performances and experiences full of intimacy, personality and community engagement, and to develop and nurture blistering independent talent with fresh voices and sparkling vision.
Producer Holly Ball has a magical knack for bringing creatively energetic minds together and assembling innovative teams, has a sharp eye for potential, and 'can be your biggest hype guy’.
