PETER BURDON | THE ADELAIDE ADVERTISER
‘Lina Limosani’s One’s Wicked Ways is another gem from this most original choreographic voice.’
One’s Wicked Ways was a commission by Garry Stewarts Australian Dance Theatre, for their Ignition season of ‘History’. The work utilises humor and an almost obscene and absurd bravado – danced and embodied – to represent and scrutinise ‘high societies’ and their indulgent nature; a reflection on our propensity toward perverse pleasures and gluttony. It is wickedly entertaining, humorous, discomfiting and ultimately provocative.
Set in a historic period, the work questions the human condition and its inherent behaviours.
The consequences of history form the foundation of our daily life, yet are we actually learning from the innumerable signposts from our past?

‘Lina Limosani’s One’s Wicked Ways was the major work in the program, and is another gem from this most original choreographic voice, with farcical baroque costumes and much made of the pointless posturing of the aristocracy — and the sticky end that awaited them.’
