Description Happy As Larry is a dynamic, playful, and multi-layered new dance work which investigates the elusive nature of human happiness. Created by award-winning Australian choreographer Shaun Parker, this powerful performance combines an intoxicating, free-flowing mix of break-dance, ballet, and contemporary dance. An emerging talent on the world stage, Parker won the 2008 Australian Dance Award for outstanding achievement in independent dance. Following tours to Europe and Asia, Parker has developed a reputation for choreography which combines a “fat dose of funny” with a visionary dance aesthetic.
