With four diverse and dynamic works on offer, Sydney Dance Company promises an interesting and exciting future for its next generation of choreographers. 

A powerful work by brave innovators is a legacy for the departing Opera Australia Artistic Director. 

Monodramas by Francis Poulenc, Kaija Saariaho and Jack Symonds feature in a triple bill on the themes of love, loss and absence. 

Gorgeous music by Mary Finsterer and an evocative setting by Elizabeth Gadsby transport you to the ends of the earth.

Luke Styles' interludes to the Canticles may not set the musical world alight in Awakening Shadow, but they provide the perfect excuse to perform Britten's remarkable works.

A significantly diverse showcase of new choreographic talent, featuring work by company dancers Jesse Scales and Chloe Leong, and Indigenous-Australian choreographer Joel Bray, and Indian-Australian choreographer Raghav Handa.

This showcase is creative, quirky, bold and, best of all, experimental as four emerging Australian choreographers explore not just intricate shapes and sequences, but whole new ways of movement.

The 2018 installment of Sydney Dance Company's annual showcase for new choreographers, New Breed, brings four diverse and experimental works to the stage.
