Hush exaggerates and abstracts breath and gesture to create a percussive and dramatic world. Exploring the rhythm and tone of respiration, Hush brings the inside out and makes the quiet loud.
Hush was presented as part of the 2025 PIECES program held by Lucy Guerin Inc. PIECES is an annual performance program presented by Lucy Guerin Inc and University of Melbourne Arts and Culture, offering choreographers the opportunity to make 20-minute works that premiere in a season at the Union Theatre.
