MIRRAMU DANCE COMPANY
MIRRAMU DANCE COMPANY
Mirramu Dance Company was formed in early 2002. It is an Australian based contemporary dance company, which presents work in both traditional and alternative venues. It is directed by well-known Australian dance pioneer Elizabeth Cameron Dalman, assisted by dancer/choreographer Vivienne Rogis, who have been working together since 1997.
Mirramu Dance Company believes in sharing and communicating through the creative process, inviting artists from different disciplines to guest with the company. Much of its work is done in an inter-disciplinary and cross-cultural context with high levels of community involvement via workshops, forums and events associated with each professional production.
