What's Age Got to Do with It?

What's Age Got to Do with It?T0
Still a relatively young art form, contemporary dance in the UK is only now beginning to produce a substantial generation of mature dance artists, both dance-makers and performers. What are the issues - philosophical, aesthetic and practical - that affect an artist's ability to sustain his or her art? How do their priorities change over time? What do we need to learn as a sector if we are to retain their experience? Gill Clarke will chair a panel of mature working artists, including Paul-André Fortier, who will discuss issues around survival, sustaining engagement and a dancer's status in the wider dance culture. Gill has had an extensive performing, teaching and making career and was a founder member of Siobhan Davies Dance Company. She is Co-director of Independent dance, an artist-led organisation dedicated to the ongoing development of dance artists at all stages of their career, works with students at Laban and teaches internationally.
