Lewis Major Projects – Triptych REDUX - WOMADelaide

Describing himself as "a dance artist with a background in sheep shearing and a foreground in contemporary dance theatre", Lewis Major didn't set foot in a theatre until his teens. But he has since worked with some of the biggest names in international contemporary dance including Akram Khan, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, Russell Maliphant, Hofesh Shechter and Aakash Odedra. His company, Lewis Major Projects, is based in South Australia, where Major grew up on a sheep farm. Tryptych Redux is a reworking of his earlier work Triptych, which the Edinburgh Festival described as "life-changingly beautiful". A multiple-award-winning artist, he has created 17 different works both independently and on-commission and has presented them on six continents to widespread critical and commercial success.
