Sleep/Wake

Sleep/Wake imageSleep/Wake is part performance-art installation and part dance work. Sleep/Wake features new choreography, original music, evocative lighting, live video, and a dynamic set design of moving architecture, spinning beds, and liquid surfaces.

This production was developed through collaboration between Massey University’s Sleep/Wake Research Centre and The Playground NZ Ltd, directed by performance designer Sam Trubridge. Through the languages of movement, image, and science a unique journey begins: into the unknown territory of sleep, where we spend one third of our lives.

Sleep/Wake won two awards in the 2008 NZ Fringe Festival: Best Production Design, and Most Outstanding Performer (for Maria Dabrowska). It was also Highly Commended in the ‘Most Original Concept’ category.
