MSTM is a new full-length dance work co-created and performed by Martin del Amo, Sue Healey, Tra Mi Dinh, and Mitchell Christie, produced and presented by Campbelltown Arts Centre.

Named after the artists’ initials, MSTM is a layered and inventive collaboration between two choreographic pairings – Martin and Sue, longtime collaborators, and Tra Mi and Mitch, frequent partners from a younger generation. Together, they form a quartet for the first time. 

MSTM explores what it means to collaborate. What happens when four distinct dance artists create a work from scratch, each moving fluidly between the roles of choreographer and performer? How do they retain their individuality while forging a collective presence? The work unfolds through shifting formations and unstable alignments – testing compatibility, navigating contradictions, and mapping the delicate interplay between chaos and order. 

Audience experience is integral to the work. Echoing MSTM’s choreographic logic of negotiation and repositioning, the audience enters the theatre from backstage. Along the way, they move through an atmospheric threshold of projections, sound, and miniature performances before emerging into an ever-shifting theatrical landscape. As the performers witness one another witnessing, the audience too becomes part of a charged field of observation, perception, and response.
