En Trance

By Yumi Umiumare

28 August 2009 – 13 September 2009 Tower Theatre

Malthouse Theatre,

Theatre Dance Live Art

Yumi Umiumare is about to electrify the Tower Theatre with this bold new work. EnTrance detonates Umiumare's internationally renowned performance style to the twisted corridors of the un-living. At times brutally visceral, the performance is counterbalanced with the purity of digital painting produced live with her collaborating artists, Bambang Nurcahyadi and Naomi Ota.
