Life often unfolds in unexpected directions.
Four strangers find themselves trapped in an unknown place with no exit.
Together they dance tango, search for answers and recall moments when life ran out of control.
From the exuberance of young love to the grief of loss, their only hope of moving on is to reconcile the past.
Featuring Danielle Micich's emotive dance theatre and Kingsley Reeve's filmic soundscape, Shiver explores the vulnerability of being human and the stories that connect us.
