"I'm interested in abstracting [social ideas into performances]. I look at many dance works and find them meaningless - they're merely movement manipulation," said legendary British choreographer Lloyd Newson, who founded DV8 (short for "Dance and Video 8") Physical Theatre in 1986.

South Australia has long been known for its Barossa Valley, a name any wine aficionado should know by heart. So perhaps when I landed at Adelaide International Airport I should have claimed to be a wine buff, instead of telling the truth. But I couldn't help myself: "I'm here to watch dance and theatre performances at the Adelaide Bank Festival of Arts," I explained, and won myself a harder....
