Description 3 Premieres presents new works from Paul Mercurio, Graeme Murphy and Kim Walker...Piano Sonata is a short, tight and exciting dance piece...a delightful collusion of choreography and music...Walker's Monkey See uses enormous propeller-like fans suspended from the ceiling and a litter of mannequins dressed in tan and beige uniforms to create the feel of a 1960s representation of the future...Paul Mercurio's Edging, an inspired
attempt to integrate roller blading with dance.
