The Awkward Duets ,
now extended into two sections in its new form for this November series, is a boisterous and wayward quintet with an oddball,
dance-hall spin. Music for the work is written by Australian composer Darrin Verhagen, and features two linked off-kilter pieces. Verhagen has created
music for Chunky Move and Lucy Guerin, as well as numerous international film and theatre directors
