Hosted by VCA Dance researcher and performer Dr. Phoebe Robinson.
Panel 2: Discover how choreographers evolve their practice, taking inspiration from dance archives, and envisioning new futures for the artform. Arabella Frahn-Starkie (Pictures & Ghosts) is joined by dance and theatre students from the VCA to share insights into the creative process of developing rich, exciting works from archival material.
