OUT OF THE STUDIO
DirtyFeet is invested in putting accessible, diverse and inclusive dance practice at the forefront of its programming.
This year Director Anthea Doropoulos has curated one emerging choreographer and two emerging makers who reflect this; Choreographer/Performer Assam Mohamed and Emerging Maker Artists; Matthew Massaria and Bonnie Curtis.
Each Emerging Maker will work in collaboration with an established choreographer who will create a solo on them. The choreographers are Martin Del Amo and Sarah-Vyne Vassallo.
These new dance works will be presented in September at their newest Partnering venue Sydney Dance Company.
All the Out of the Studio artists will be involved in The Right Foot and they look forward to seeing everyone get their feet dirty in 2023.
