Directed by Force Majeure Artistic Director Danielle Micich, 60 Gold Coast locals, along with dancers from the company, will perform against the spectacular backdrop of the Surfers Paradise beach sunset in the world premiere.
"An international arts festival is all about an exchange - of ideas, of creative inspiration, of experiences, of memories.
"It’s been thrilling to take part in classes with Force Majeure dancers and be guided by Danielle in her unique style.
"It’s a surreal experience to see the creative process unfold, I’ve learnt so much from being part of this group already and can’t wait to perform down at Surfers," Ms Burrows said.
"Festival 2018 is a significant platform for Queensland to accelerate growth, development and connections for the arts and creative industries.
Led by Artistic Director Danielle Micich, Force Majeure creates works that reflect Australian life in all its diversity, by exploring and questioning contemporary culture using intelligence, humour and insight.
