Heath Ledger Theatre, State Theatre Centre WA , Perth, Western Australia

About This Festival

Celebrating 25 years in 2014, STEPS presents Fights and Flights at the Heath Ledger Theatre during May – a stunning fusion of dance, theatre and Kung Fu. To mark the milestone, STEPS brings back to Perth five notable alumni who will feature in the work, including Belgian-based James O’Hara (Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui), and UK-based Sofie Burgoyne (Frantic Assembly and the Henri Oguike Company).

Fights and Flights is a celebration of life - the incredible battles and immense achievements that make it rich and satisfying. It acknowledges the notion that difficult fights may lead to beautiful flights. Fights and Flights weaves together stories of the deepest darkness and the brightest light and will see 65 performers, aged 7-30, bring to life a beautiful, terrifying and thrilling roller coaster ride of flights and fights, their intimate truths and epic universalities.
