Storm Approaching Wangi and Other Desires is a new ballet about the life of artist William Dobell, which was premiered at MAP mima, Lake Macquarie, over three nights in November. It was a such pleasure to develop, perform and hang with this brilliant team: choreographers Skip Willcox and Belle Beasley, artist James Drinkwater, dancers Alex Abbot, Allie Graham, Strickland Young, Matthew Mortimer, as well as Vinnie Drinkwater. I'm very grateful to all the collaborators, The Lockup in Newcastle for having me as Artist in Residence, and the team at MAP mima. More to come (fingers crossed). Pics by Ben Adams.
