Featuring choreographers Martin del Amo, Angela Goh, Raghav Handa, Vicki Van Hout, and Nelson Earl with music from Corin Ileto, Marcus Whale, Shana O'Brien, Johnny Brown, Philip Downing, Clever Austin and Sofi Tukker.
Presented as a part of the Sydney Opera House's Artist & Sector Development Program. Special thanks to Martin del Amo whose Slow Dances for Fast Times (2013) inspired these micro-commissions.
