Showcasing a rich diversity of choreographic ideas, this talented group of emerging choreographers will create brand new pieces on members of Sydney Dance Company. These four new works will comprise the New Breed 2019 season from 28 November to 7 December. The New Breed initiative made its debut in November 2014, supporting five emerging Australian choreographers through the commissioning and presentation of new dance work. Four sold out seasons in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 ensued. The sixth instalment in the New Breed initiative will see Carriageworks, Sydney Dance Company and The Balnaves Foundation continue their commitment to the future of Australian contemporary dance, by supporting independent choreographers Josh Mu, Lauren Langlois, Ariella Casu and Davide Di Giovanni. From August, these dance makers will benefit from the extensive support of all the departments of Sydney Dance Company in readiness for their premiere season at Carriageworks, later this year.

  • Dance Theatre Week 7 Meryl Tankard Biog
    MERYL TANKARD BIOGRAPHY www.meryltankard.com MERYL TANKARD <span class="director">Director &amp; Choreographer</span> Meryl Tankard was born in Darwin , but moved frequently across the region as a child due to her father's air force career. She spent her early years in Penang (Malaysia), Melbourne and Newcastle, acquiring a taste for change and adventure which was to pattern her entire career. In 1973 Tankard entered the Australian Ballet school and from there, the Australian Ballet Company in 1975. Her first choreography (in 1977), Birds Behind Bars, a humorous spoof on feminism, won her a prize which enabled her to take a trip to Europe to learn more about the thriving European dance scene. Her life took a radical new direction when she encountered the work of German choreographer Pina Bausch. Following a gruelling three hour audition Pina immediately invited Meryl to join her Wuppertaler Tanztheater as a soloist, and for the next six years Meryl enjoyed a distinguished career as one of Bausch's leading performers. She created leading roles in landmark productions such as Cafe Muller, Kontakthof ,Walzer , Bandoneon, Arien, 1980 and Keuscheitslegende and danced in many other works as well. In 1983 she starred in the 50 minute film Sydney an der Wupper which was awarded a Gold film band at the Berlin Film Festival. After many years, at the peak of her carreer, Tankard felt the need to create her own work. On a tour to the Adelaide Festival in Australia in 1982 Tankard's homesickness hit and in 1984 she left Bausch's company.
