PIONEERS brings young queer and CALD Western-Sydney artists together to explore dance, activism and identity through the contemporary social, psychological and physical relationships they have with public space.
As the artists from PIONEERS claim their space and claim their time, they will invite audiences to participate intheir activism as the event culminates into a collective dance. The dance will invigorate and reinforce optimism, freedom and reclaim the beauty and urgency of young people’s survival in the 21st century.
With love and dedication to dance – second to none – The Pioneers are Australia’s bravest dance crew.
After the performance, stay back for a panel discussion about activism in dance.
