REFLECTOR | TICKETS ON SALE

23rd & 24th JAN | 8 - 9:15 PM | IRENE MITCHELL THEATRE (44 ST MARTINS LANE, SOUTH YARRA)

Scimm. Dance Company presents Reflector, a powerful double bill of contemporary dance created for Midsumma Festival 2026, exploring identity, expression, queerness and human connection.

  • Reflector, choreographed by Scott Pokorny and Tim Barnes in collaboration with the dancers, is a striking exploration of self-reflection and duality. Through intimate duets, sculptural movement and a fashion-forward aesthetic, the work examines how we see ourselves and how we are seen by others.

  • The program also features the world premiere of Q, choreographed by Ronan Armstrong in collaboration with the dancers. Q is a bold, unapologetic work centred on sexuality, gender, community and representation - celebrating individuality, vulnerability and collective strength.

Together, this performance offers an emotionally charged and visually compelling evening of contemporary dance that is sensual, thoughtful and deeply human.

Please note: this performance contains haze and strobe lighting effects.
