Our Creations

Inspired by the show Vikings, this contemporary piece explores themes of death, limbo, and the cycles we become trapped in through conflict and survival. The dancers exist in a suspended state, caught between worlds, repeating patterns as if unable to move forward.

As the piece develops, repetition begins to fracture - isolation and internal struggle shifting into collective strength. Unity, protection, and resilience: finding power in vulnerability, and connection amid chaos.

Just like the seed, we peel away layers of all that we are not and don't need - returning to the core of our beings. Pure and powerful. The container of all beauty, vibrancy, colour and texture. All that which life is.

We shed the coverings that veil the true self, returning to the quiet pulse of being: simple, raw and complete. Inside each of us lives the beauty of life itself.

"The phrases I left before..." Emotions speaking through movement - in every breath, every reach of a fingertip, every contraction and elongation, far beyond what words can express.

Created by Eliane Fetzer and taught by Patricia Kirchoff, Before is a deeply personal offering, showing QTC and its community the magic that dance holds.

Put together in just one month across six short rehearsals, Kaleidoscope is a mash-up of seven different styles, with each crew member choreographing their own section.

A collective piece that takes the audience on a journey - evoking the shifting beauty of a kaleidoscope, and above all, representing the bond of a family who found safety with each other on the dance floor.

Where movement meets emotion. In this piece, Queenstown Contemporary is bound together by passion - we dance as one. Each step, each breath, a shared story.

Choreographed by Amber Steward, part in person and part remotely from the USA - a masterpiece crafted across distance. It's more than movement; it embodies euphoria - raw, electric, and deeply personal. Dance is our medicine. It heals, it frees, it speaks when words fall short. We are not just dancers, we are storytellers, energy in motion, souls laid bare.

Choreographed by Amber Steward, Glitter and Gold brought a new energy and intention to QTC's growing body of work - bold, radiant, and unmistakably QTC.

QTC's debut performance. Better Days marked the beginning of everything - the first time Queenstown Contemporary stepped onto a stage and shared their love of movement with the world.

Created by Tali and Amber Steward, it was a bold, heartfelt beginning for a brand new collective.
