Have you ever wanted to be a fly on the wall in a dance studio at one of the most prestigious ballet companies in the world? Or wondered what was going through Giselle's mind as she lifted her leg to her ear? There is a lot more to the politics of dance than lithe women wearing pointe shoes being hoisted into the air by men in tights. Listen in for a weekly conversation on all aspects of the professional dance world as Barry Kerollis, freelance choreographer and popular blogger, candidly sha ...

In this special episode, we talk to two artistic directors about the current funding crisis ravaging our sector.

Here's …

In this episode, we talk to Charlotte Vincent and Robert Clark about parenting in the arts. Becoming a parent changes the lives of all who do it, but artists often need to make huge decisions about how they will balance the responsibility of caring alongside a profession that requires touring, weekend and evening work and situations where ‘WFH’ jus…

In this episode, we talk to Rosie Heafford and Neus Gil Cortés about making accessible work. Today, there probably isn’t a company or organisation that would say they didn’t want to make accessible work, and yet there are still people excluded from it: be they performers, collaborators or audiences. We talk to two artists about their approaches to …

In this episode we talk to Marla King and Adam Benjamin about environmental responsibility. Many of us have long recognised our role in protecting the planet but perhaps the last two years of the pandemic – when we lived in our parks and gardens, saw our skies fill with birdsong and our roads quieten – has unlocked a willingness for more of us to t…

In this episode, we talk to Harriet Waghorn and Kamala Devam about their experience working across different genres of dance. As dancers we often train in streams of dance genres – often there are expected routes mapped out for us and aesthetics we are expected to achieve. It’s therefore refreshing to find artists whose work transcends those divide…

Oftentimes, social media influencers are looked upon as famous, important, and successful. While their curated feeds exaggerate their finest qualities, offer careful insight into struggles they want you to see, and expand upon their feelings of self-importance as a voice with a platform, it doesn't necessarily equate to them being successful in…

In this episode, we talk to Deborah Light and Tom Hobden about building audiences for your work. We make art for people – and if we have no audience, what is the reason for the work? How do we then bring audiences to the work? How do we introduce dance to people who haven’t had an opportunity to discover it? And what do we want of them other than t…

Since September 11, 2001, the United States has lived in a constant state of fear.

In this episode, Ba…

In this episode, we talk to Karthika Naïr and Eva Martinez about the role of dramaturgy. An artist’s creation space is a rather special place to inhabit. It’s vibrant, exciting, tense sometimes nail-biting. And it always feels to me to be an honour to be there. But by the same token, it comes with much responsibility particularly if you are invited…

In this episode, we talk to Katie Serridge and Nafisah Baba about Breaking Through.

In this episode, we talk to Isaac Ouro-Gnao and Donald Hutera about the role of Feedback & Criticism. Every artist making work and putting it out there into the world is inviting an opinion of some kind: be that from their immediate collaborators, their performers, the raised eyebrow of a parent or mentor, their audience, or critics. Feedback is so…

In this episode, we talk to Annie Hanauer and Erion Kruja about Creating an Identity. For many dancers it’s a dream to secure a long term contract within a prestigious dance company, but there comes a time when it just feels right to move on. So what happens when you fly that nest – leaving the safety of a regular wage, daily class, regular perform…

In this episode we talk to Liv Lorent and Arthur Pita about creating dance for families.

In this episode, we talk to Frauke Requardt and Luca Silvestrini about making work for the outdoors. Artists have long been making work to animate places and spaces and there is much for them to consider when they do. The work has to sit within the setting, engage with passersby who perhaps are not expecting, or even asking, to be engaged with. But…

In this episode we talk to Avatâra Ayuso and Anna Williams about women and dance. Within an overwhelmingly female profession, it still feels largely led by men particularly in creative and managerial roles. How has this come about and most importantly… what can we do about it? We discuss how being a woman has shaped Avatâra and Anna’s own careers a…
