April/May issue OUT NOW!

Our April/May issue is OUT NOW and is packed with essential reading!

Taking centre stage are the Queensland Ballet’s principal dancers from Cuba, Yanela Pinera and Camilo Ramos. Read about why they left their beloved homeland to come and dance in faraway Australia.

In light of the recent sexual harrassment allegations in the theatre, and particularly musical theatre, our music theatre writer Sally Clark has interviewed Equity president Chloe Dallimore for advice on how to deal with inappropriate behaviour. It makes essential reading.

This issue continues our Great Collaborations series – this time featuring the critically acclaimed on and offstage partnership of contemporary duo Stephanie Lake and Robin Fox.

The Australian Ballet’s medical team is gaining a world-wide reputation for preventing and healing injuries – not just with dancers but also with footy stars! We go into the gym to find out how they do it.

How do we encourage more boys to take up ballet? Where are our future Nureyevs? Our regular columnist, Matthew Lawrence, puts forward his ideas on teaching ballet to boys.

This issue’s contemporary technique series focuses on getting down on the floor, and our Class section features all the latest student grad intakes as well as an account of the Grand Audition in Spain. And as usual the magazine is chockers with gorgeous photos, including a gallery from one of the best: photographer Jon Green.

How could you miss it? Read it, touch it, keep it! And all for a mere $8.50. Buy the new issue at your favourite magazine retailer or purchase an online copy via the Dance Australia app or subscribe here.
