Description

– An electrifying non-stop performance distilling the intensity of a three-day rave into an hour-long spectacle of pure endurance. From Aotearoa (New Zealand), Oli Mathiesen with Lucy Lynch and Sharvon Mortimer present the award-winning The Butterfly Who Flew Into The Rave, an endurance-based dance work set to the booming Detroit techno album Nocturbulous Behaviour by Suburban Knight. Exploring the movement vocabulary used in techno through the atmosphere and culture of a three-day rave condensed into an hour. Witness the relentless movement of three bodies, seamless without pause, and detailed down to every beat. Indulge in the pain, sweat, and cathartic mess; a display of pure endurance to achieve a goal. The Butterfly Who Flew Into The Rave is a spectacle of the human body as a victim to music,  passion, and our endless desire to achieve more: To win and win again. As the show closes, you’ll be invited to remain in The Black Box and dance to a guest DJ at our very own Techno fueled night club, included in your ticket price.

It’s indicative of a realised creative vision. Whether or not you love a nightclub, whether or not it’s your world being lifted from and riffed on, you can’t help but marvel at it.” – Theatreview  “Overall, The Butterfly Who Flew Into The Rave is an extraordinary dance work; a marvellous simulation of an intensely vigorous, volatile and transcendent rave.  I am left feeling violently jealous not being able to join in under the infectious and lingering techno pulse.” – Theatreview “This is dance theatre as pure ecstasy”  ★★★★ The Scotsman “It is relentless, as are the dancers”  ★★★★ The Guardian “The dancers are unremitting and relentless, as if each is connected to a personal generator parked outside.”  ★★★★★ Broadway Baby “An astonishing feat of endurance”  ★★★★★ Theatre Weekly The Butterfly Who Flew Into The Rave at The Black Box Theater , Saadiyat Marina District Abu Dhabi United Arab Emirates events5 Festivals The Black Box Theater, The Arts Center at NYU Abu Dhabi
