As It Stands is a powerful, awe-inspiring new dance work from New Zealand dance visionary and recent Arts Laureate Ross McCormack, and his company Muscle Mouth.
Influenced by the monumental creations of iconic American sculptor, Richard Serra, this immersive show places eight world class dancers in a majestic sculptural landscape. Made up of formidable steel-like monoliths that tower upwards from the floor, the setting imposes a striking contrast between the order of design and the chaos of human nature, in an electric performance space where hard structural lines and fragile sinuous movement meet.
Technically astonishing and visually arresting, As it Stands mixes impressive scale, lighting, and soundscapes with McCormack’s renowned choreography into a remarkable work that pushes the limits of virtuosic dance and design.

Muscle Mouth is one of New Zealand’s leading next generation dance companies.
Commentators consistently note the company’s fresh, visionary performances.
Artistic Director, Ross McCormack takes a visceral almost sculptural approach to creating movement, and the company powerfully integrates all aspects of performance design into their work.
Muscle Mouth’s four co-founders and designers (dance, sound, light, dramaturgy) joined for the company’s first commission Age, presented by 2014 New Zealand Festival.
Since then, Muscle Mouth has toured works throughout New Zealand, and to Hong Kong Arts Festival, Seoul International Dance Festival, M1 Contact Contemporary Dance Festival, Singapore, and to BIDAM and APAM arts markets.
