before, between, beyond

Bachelor of Fine Arts (Dance) and Bachelor of Fine Arts (Production) students present our Graduating Season of Dance Works, before, between, beyond.

before, between, beyond speaks through sensuous languages and techniques of body and design to evoke states of play, poetry and politics. From the inter-cellular to the human-animal, from the concept of home to the reality of dispossession, these works perform ideas that take hold of us, that bind us together and that keep us awake, propelling us towards unforeseen futures.

— Professor Carol Brown, Head of VCA Dance

Emerging from three years of dancing, designing, producing and dreaming at VCA we arrive here, at our Graduation season. We hold a deep sense of connection between people within and beyond the VCA, and will continue to be marked, inscribed and impressed as emerging artists, changemakers and creatives in a global community.
