Spotlight on Kelley Abbey: Salome’s Dance of the Seven Veils
AussieTheatre’s Ben Neutze caught up with choreographic legend Kelley Abbey at the final dress rehearsal of her opera debut – Opera Australia’s Salome.
Abbey choreographed the iconic ‘Dance of the Seven Veils’ for Gale Edwards’ brand new production of Salome, complete with a pole dancer, Marilyn Monroe and a french maid.
In this video, we see a sneak peek of the stunning choreography by Abbey and are afforded an insight into the production through discussion with dancers Caroline Kaspar and Emma Goh.
