More recently, he created Nude Live, a dance installation sydneydancecompany.com amongst the extraordinary collection of artworks that made up Nude: Art from the Tate Collection. Tony Assness Production and Costume Design Note 2 One Another is about the experience of connecting and disconnecting – to be one, alone, singular. To know and experience the difference between solitude and loneliness. To feel whole or crushingly empty. To not connect or to forever lose a connection, or to feel connected even when that person is no longer there. It is something that is constantly happening to all of us. To be or to share with another initiates a whole different spectrum of emotions. To be part of a wider group, a smashing party, connecting or not to many multi-faceted networks which are there, ongoing, continuous, ending and beginning, with or without me. The intention of the production design of 2 One Another is to frame the action, while my intention as costume designer is to get out of the way of that action while simultaneously dressing it. A most fascinating part of the whole design process is how the costumes evolve. What does one clothe a dancer in, given that an audience is there to see limbs, torsos, hands and faces, feet, necks, spines, shoulder blades moving through space? What the dancer wears is not there to tell a story, these dancers are not characters, and covering their bodies with real clothes would be a waste of time. So what do the costumes mean? All I’m doing here is creating a second skin for each performer, one that is unique to each dancer’s body while at the same time visually connecting every body that is on stage to one another.

  • Jump on Board High-Performing Not-For-Profit Boards in Fundraising
    JUMP ON BOARD HIGH-PERFORMING NOT-FOR-PROFIT BOARDS IN FUNDRAISING November 2019 PREPARED BY Melissa Smith Director & Founder, Noble Ambition in partnership with Perpetual ABOUT THE AUTHOR Melissa is former Global Fundraiser of the Year (IFC, 2011) and Australian Fundraiser of the Year (FIA, 2011). She has facilitated philanthropic giving across education, the arts and health, and worked with hundreds of donors in Australia, Asia and the United States.

Melissa has a BA Hons (First Class, USyd), Masters of Management (UTS); is a Churchill Fellow (2007) and a graduate of University of Melbourne’s Asialink Leaders Program and Benevolent Society’s Sydney Leadership Program.

As a thought leader in the philanthropic and fundraising sector, she is in the privileged position of possessing the practical and strategic skills to support both pillars equally. Jump on Board: High-performing not-for-profit boards in fundraising 2 Philanthropic fundraising in Australia is in a state of rapid change. While mass giving is in decline, major gifts are on the rise, and in coming years we will see the largest intergenerational transfer of wealth in our nation’s history. This undoubtedly presents an exciting opportunity for the non-for-profit (NFP) sector to attract significant support, but also raises questions about how prepared NFPs are to maximise this opportunity.

  • Sammy Figueroa Full
    Sammy Figueroa has long been regarded as one of the world’s great musicians. As a much-admired percussionist he provided the rhythmical framework for hundreds of hits and countless recordings. Well-known for his versatility and professionalism, he is equally comfortable in a multitude of styles, from R & B to rock to pop to electronic to bebop to Latin to Brazilian to New Age. But Sammy is much more than a mere accompanist: when Sammy plays percussion he tells a story, taking the listener on a journey, and amazing audiences with both his flamboyant technique and his subtle nuance and phrasing. Sammy Figueroa is now considered to be the most likely candidate to inherit the mantles of Mongo Santamaria and Ray Barretto as one of the world’s great congueros. Sammy Figueroa was born in the Bronx, New York, the son of the well-known romantic singer Charlie Figueroa. His first professional experience came at the age of 18, while attending the University of Puerto Rico, with the band of bassist Bobby Valentin. During this time he co-founded the innovative Brazilian/Latin group Raices, which broke ground for many of today’s fusion bands. Raices was signed to a contract with Atlantic Records and Sammy returned to New York, where he was discovered by the great flautist Herbie Mann. Sammy immediately became one of the music world’s hottest players and within a year he had appeared with John McLaughlin, the Brecker Brothers and many of the world’s most famous pop artists. Since then, in a career spanning over thirty years, Sammy has played with a

This is an exceptional opportunity to experience two mesmerising danceworks - legendary American choreographer William Forsythe’s acclaimed masterpiece Quintett, and Rafael Bonachela’s newly created Frame of Mind, direct from its world premiere Sydney performances. Created in 1993, William Forsythe’s Quintett is one of the most renowned contemporary dance works of the 20th Century. This highly poetic and powerful work, developed in collaboration with Ballet Frankfurt dancers Dana Caspersen, Stephen Galloway, Jacopo Godani, Thomas McManus and Jone San Martin, was a final love letter to Forsythe’s wife, dancer Tracy-Kai Maier, who succumbed to cancer in 1994, aged 32. Quintett is set to a hauntingly beautiful soundtrack by renowned post-minimalist British composer, Gavin Bryars; his iconic 1975 composition, Jesus's Blood Never Failed Me Yet. Inspired by a grainy, chance recording of a homeless man singing, the looped vocals begin as a barely audible, distant melody, and acquire a slowly evolving, growing orchestral accompaniment, which with its insistent optimism, tinged with tragedy, creeps under the skin and magnifies the intense poignancy of the choreography.
