Force Majeure is a national devising company that makes visceral interdisciplinary movement-based performance. We collaborate with Australia’s most compelling multidisciplinary artists to devise original theatrical experiences that synthesise movement, spoken word, and a range of creative forms. This hybrid storytelling is our way of exploring provocative and urgent contemporary issues with a complexity and nuance that is not possible through words or movement alone. Force Majeure’s vision is to continue to be Australia’s preeminent multidisciplinary movement-based theatre company, known as a crucible for diverse voices that produces unforgettable performances. An essential pillar of Force Majeure’s work, INCITE is our professional development program in dramaturgical movement-based devising for both established artists and the next generation that empowers artists to develop their creative, collaborative and leadership capacity. Our Associate Artist program supports independent artists with self-directed long-term mentorship, advancement of practice, company infrastructure and project funding so they can develop new work and mature into impactful industry leaders. The two inaugural positions are currently held by Ghenoa Gela and Liesel Zink. The company is led by Artistic Director Danielle Micich and was established in 2002 by Founding Artistic Director Kate Champion. Force Majeure is a resident organisation at Carriageworks and a proud member of Live Performance Australia, the International Society of the Performing Arts and Theatre Network Australia.
