KonTra : Borneo

KonTra : Borneo showcases a contingent of five talented choreographers from East Malaysia along with one more from Peninsular Malaysia. Drawing inspiration from the people of East Malaysia, their culture and their way of life, the choreographers weave this rich tapestry of cultures and stories into six contemporary dance works.

Come experience a slice of Borneo through this experimental dance showcase, a unique way to usher in the Kaamatan and Gawai festivities and to celebrate Bornean culture.

KonTra is an on-going experimental dance series helmed by choreographer Zhafir Muzani which honours our traditions while forging a new way forward through contemporary dance.

Keenam-enam koreografer akan menyampaikan enam buah karya tarian kontemporari yang terinspirasi daripada seni, budaya, dan cara hidup masyarakat Malaysia Timur.

Marilah alami suasana Borneo yang menjadi inspirasi eksperimen ke dalam karya kontemporari, seiringan dengan menyambut ketibaan perayaan Kaamatan dan Gawai disamping meraikan budaya Borneo.
