RESTORE – Melbourne Fringe

Renae Shadler’s new solo show RESTORE is a beautiful and sensual experience that melds text and dance.

Inspired by a residency that she undertook in an Icelandic fishing village with an active volcano capped with a glacier in her backyard, Shadler is stripped bare, both physically and emotionally. What follows is an gorgeous examination into learning how to step back, reassess your life and how to appreciate the wonderful things this world has to offer.

This is an elegantly executed performance with stunning visuals and music, while Shadler, armed with a gentle smile and knowing eyes, proves herself to be a fascinating and enchanting performer that you can’t take your eyes off.
