Episode Synopsis

Conversation with choreographer and dancer Emma Harrison about her solo dance work Wolverine, showing as part of 2024 Sydney Festival.

Transformation, eruption, and melting of rage and joy - Wolverine sits between dance, cabaret, and performance art to explore and subvert feminine archetypes, mythology, wolves, pop culture, and self-defence.

We talk about many layers of the work - from its cinematic influences, to the relationship to the moon and deep blue, skin and fur.
