Happy As Larry description
Created by award-winning Australian choreographer Shaun Parker, Happy as Larry is a funny, playful and poignant new dance show, which investigates the nature of human happiness. Combining a mix of ballet, breakdance, roller skating and highly physical contemporary dance, Happy as Larry is accompanied by a vibrant electro-acoustic score from Nick Wales and Bree van Reyk.
The eclectic cast of characters is drawn from the Enneagram, a psychological system that maps nine different personality types: The Perfectionist, The Giver, The Performer, The Tragic Romantic, The Observer, The Devil's Advocate, The Optimist, The Boss and The Mediator; providing rich inspiration for Parker's fertile choreographic imagination.
