Welcome to The Dance Centre’s 2019/2020 season! We are excited to announce a varied and stimulating series of dance experiences, featuring exceptional work by both local and international dance makers.
We aim to entertain and inspire you through opportunities to engage with artistic visions from different traditions and genres. And behind the scenes, choreographic ideas are explored through our residency and research programs: there will be free studio showings and talks throughout the season.
Tickets and subscriptions are on sale now. Join us for a season of dance!
