Strings - A Triple Bill

22 - 30 MAY 2026

Playhouse, QPAC

Three daring visions — one unforgettable ballet.

Experience three visionary works in one electrifying performance. As the title suggests, each work is grounded in string music, a sonic thread weaving through all three works to form a shared musical language.

Edward Clug's witty Chamber Minds explores human connection with striking patterns, playful imbalance, and ingenious staging via the use of a violin and cembalo.

Christian Spuck's The Seventh Blue is choreographed to Schubert's Death and the Maiden string quartet and meditates on mortality through Schubert's haunting Death and the Maiden.
Goyo Montero's Chacona pushes dancers to their limits against layered renditions of Bach's Chaconne for solo violin.

With live music performed by Camerata - Queensland's Chamber Orchestra, these three ballets reveal dance as both urgent and eternal - shifting between intimacy, intensity, and collective resonance. A thrilling showcase of contemporary voices redefining ballet for today.
