Nation-wide tour of longest-running contemporary dance company makes stop in Auckland

Footnote New Zealand Dance, Aotearoa’s leading contemporary dance company, are bringing their critically acclaimed show If You Know You Know, to nine centres across the country, returns to Auckland with two night season at Q Loft.

“IYKYK is a show to inspire the next generation of dancers in New Zealand. It's physical; the dancers never stop moving, showing off their athleticism. It’s dark. There are fight scenes, romance scenes, and a red clock on the wall that is counting us down to the end of the world.” - Anita Hunziker, Artistic Director of Footnote Dance.

With a passion for growing audiences for live dance, Footnote has ensured that this is a dance show everyone will enjoy. “Our mission is to enrich Aotearoa by amplifying dance as an art form. What better way to do that than take the highest quality shows to as many communities as possible?” from the company’s General Manager, Zoë Nicholson.

The tour will begin in Wellington and go on to Palmerston North, Hamilton, Auckland, Whakatāne, Gisborne, Queenstown and Christchurch. The dancers will teach masterclasses to budding young dancers in Auckland, supporting them on their journey.

Founded in 1985, Footnote Dance is Aotearoa’s longest-standing contemporary dance company and is a trailblazer for the dance community.

They support artists, teach dance to thousands of young people across New Zealand, and tour dance works nationally and internationally.
