Dance Days 2024

Each winter, Dance Victoria produces Dance Days, a 10-day celebration of dance with free classes, workshops, and performances at local dance studios and other venues. As a longstanding community collaboration for the past 14 years, Dance Days engages the public in diverse and accessible dance forms, and promotes dance appreciation, joyful movement, and connection.

Dance Days launches with a free presentation of Borrowed Time, an intergenerational dance-based project created by Lesley Telford of Inverso Productions. Taking place at Dance Victoria Studios on Saturday, January 27 at 7:30 pm, this special presentation brings together professional and local older adult dancers to explore strength and vulnerability through different phases in our lives. On February 2 + 3, Dance Days concludes on a high note with Compagnie Hervé KOUBI‘s presentation of The Barbarian Nights at the Royal Theatre, a must-see performance that will astonish audiences.
