About Visible Dance
A new contemporary dance company. Located in Perth, Western Australia, Visible Dance works with brillant dancers trained at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts.
Visible Dance's primary focus is to revitalise the audience for contemporary dance. We believe that right now, contemporary dance is simply too inaccessible and too hard to find. We also believe that there is a huge potential audience in Perth.
With a range of strategies to introduce contemporary dance to new audiences, promote it with new technologies, and take it to a few places it's never been, we are about to make it a whole lot easier to be into dance in Perth.
"It is my pleasure to introduce to you Perth's newest dance performance company, Visible Dance.Visible Dance is a great initiative by these young Australian dancers. With so many of our own dancers compelled to leave Perth in search of work, I strongly support this project which seeks to increase the vibrancy of the contemporary dance scene in our own city by introducing their art to whole new audiences.
I look forward to seeing Visible Dance flourish in 2008 and beyond."
