The Events Centre is excited to be hosting the Australasian Dance Collective for a free contemporary workshop and Q&A session these school holidays for up and coming dancers on the Sunshine Coast.

ADC Artistic Director, Amy Hollingsworth and Pre-Professional Program Director, Alison Currie will deliver an inspiring workshop featuring contemporary technique and repertoire.

Dancers interested in vocational training will have the opportunity to learn directly from these leading Australian choreographers and hear about exciting opportunities including ADC’s new Pre-Professional Program.

Australasian Dance Collective is one of Australia’s leading contemporary dance companies. Established in 1984 as Expressions Dance Company by Maggi Sietsma AM, the company has created more than 180 works by 80 national and international choreographers. Harnessing the talent of an extraordinary ensemble of six dancers, the company has achieved significant recognition through national awards, including three Helpmann Awards and three Australian Dance Awards.

Brisbane-based ADC is a significant cultural resource and a leading provider of dance performance and sector development. We recognise the need to be nationally and internationally connected, represented through our diverse range of local and global partnerships.

Our core desire is to harness the power of the collective. Our signature is one of plurality, not a singular fingerprint. In all areas of creation and performance, we work as a collective where like-minded individuals have robust and invigorating conversations that give rise to new dance, to new art.

ADC invests in artists and art and cultivates interdisciplinary collaborations and imaginative partnerships. Through dance, we embrace an intergenerational focus and innovative co-creations – eliciting and presenting these myriad voices and forms to create something never seen before.
