Long Sentences is a dance about a sentence — and a sentence that realises it is dancing.

Navigating double meanings, foretold endings and the gap between words and feelings, Long Sentences plays with how language and sensation move us beyond ourselves.

Spinning in the accumulating choreography of a long sentence, artist and performer Rhiannon Newton invites audiences to time-travel with her and feel the chorus of voices, beings and times shaping the future of our stories.

See this performance at Liveworks, Performance Space's flagship festival of live art taking over Carriageworks from 22 - 26 October 2025.
