Two performers glitch, replay, and rewind alongside their digital doubles as they misremember road trip stories in this experimental dance work that intersects choreography, theatre, and projection.
Uncanny, hilarious, and at times sinister, Tell Distance makes us question exactly how we perceive and move through landscapes. How do we 'tell distance' in a world where most of the vanishing points we see are on a screen?By digitally duplicating and juxtaposing movement and text, Tell Distance questions the accuracy and authority of dominant narratives, and further asks how the misconceptions we assume as true are produced and maintained. After short presentations at PACT, side.step, and Performance Space and Critical Path's Experimental Choreographic Lab, Sydney Fringe Festival 2026 will present the full-length premiere of Tell Distance, the debut work by emerging choreographer Nasim Patel.
