Description Two companies collaborate. Three works - two by NZers Sarah Foster-Sproull and Zahra Killeen-Chance, and one by China's Wu Jianwei. Hemispheres is a collaboration between the longest-running contemporary dance companies in New Zealand and in China. This triple-bill juxtaposes the technical mastery of detailed movement that is a signature of Chinese dance companies with the powerful physicality that New Zealand dancers are renowned for across the world.
