Melbourne is hosting the National Dance Forum.
‘The National Dance Forum is a project of Ausdance National and the Australia Council for the Arts. In association with Dance Massive, it will gather together some of Australia’s most exciting dancers, choreographers, curators, critics and collaborators in a lively discussion over two days on Saturday 19 & Sunday 20 March 2011 at Arts House North Melbourne Town Hall. The first national forum of its kind for many years, its overarching aim is to provide an opportunity for the dance sector to reflect on the state of dance practice in Australia now, and to chart a course for the future.’ (www.nationaldanceforum.net.au) Eflyer
I will attend the forum and post any interesting discussions arising, which I am sure there will be many of!
DANCE MASSIVE 15-27 March.
To start it all off I am going to see Rosalind Crisp’s ‘No one will tell us‘. See full program here:
