Once More, with Feeling is an improvised, choreographic experiment in 4-D. The performers navigate a terrain of their own making, exploring choreography, time and space, whilst contending with the influence of an omnipresent, Clairvoyant Mr Fox.

First developed in Ōtautahi, Christchurch in 2018, Once More, With Feeling was proposed by dancer and choreographer David Huggins and developed in collaboration with dance-wunderkinds Josie Archer and Kosta Bogoievski.

Archer and Bogoievski’s collaborative performances include Dance Danced Dancing (awarded Best Dance of Auckland Fringe 2018), Auckland Fringe and Josie and Kosta’s Dance Show, Salsa Latina.
