From QL2 Centre for Youth Dance. This 'work in progress" -- not finished yet! James and Emma Batchelor choreographed this piece - still to be named.

To be performed in "Hot to Trot" -- 8 & 9 December at The Australian Choreographic Centre, Canberra (More details below). "This piece is about dreams, dreams that make you fall out of bed
sweating, dreams you wish you never woke up from, dreams you try not
to forget, the space between awake and asleep.
The piece follows one night of dreaming, each section representing a
different dream."

Members of Canberra's own youth choreographic ensemble, Quantum Leap, are busy preparing for 'Hot to Trot' - a project where Leapers create short works to be performed by other Quantum Leap dancers. For some, this is their first choreographic effort; while some have choreographed works for several years. And there are a couple who have left Canberra to study dance, and this is an opportunity for them to develop ideas they have worked on in their dance courses, and present them to the 'home crowd'.

Artistic Director Quantum Leap Ruth Osborne supports them in all aspects of the process -- including group leading, choreographic development and rehearsal processes. Some have been developing their piece all year, others work more intensively for six weeks, and some in a very intensive fortnight. Ruth says the project aims to "develop choreographic awareness in young dancers as soon as possible — moving beyond just 'doing the steps', to being part of the creative process, and finally into taking the reins and making meaningful dance."

The emphasis is on young artists developing choreographic skills, theatrical craft, and group process skills; as well as presenting their original works to audiences.

If last year is anything to go by, we can expect an evening of short works of surprising depth and quality, performed with commitment and passion.

Performances over the weekend Saturday and Sunday 8-9 December -- with two different one hour shows each night.

Hot to Trot is a favourite with Canberra audiences and in recent years has played to sell out crowds.

Bring your family and make a night of it!
