PPY22 New Annual Festival

– Timeout

New Annual Festival puts the City of Newcastle, NSW, on the radar nationally and internationally, as a creative city where exciting, ambitious, and accessible contemporary art and culture grows and thrives. Sydney Dance Company was proud to be programmed into the 2022 line up presenting Stephanie Lake’s Colossus.

The contemporary dance performance created by internationally renowned choreographer Stephanie Lake is a riveting and hypnotic work that explores the relationships between the individual and the collective with a cast of fifty-five Pre-Professional Year dancers performing as one.
