Dancenorth has announced Kyle Page as its new artistic executive.
Page began his dance career at the age of 17 with Dancenorth. He then danced with Australian Dance Theatre for five and a half years before leaving to work as an independent dancer and choreographer.
The announcement comes in the wake of the company’s decision to restructure its artistic leadership. This restructure has seen the creation of two artistic advisor roles, in addition to the artistic executive. The new artistic advisors are Cheryl Stock AM and Bradley Chatfield.
Page is excited by his appointment, particularly because it comes at a time of change for Dancenorth. “The company is entering a bold new phase centred on a revitalised artistic model, and together we will reimagine the possibilities for the promotion and delivery of highly acclaimed dance-theatre productions within North Queensland, across Australia and internationally," he remarks. “To find myself in this position at the inception of this new company structure ensures my ongoing investigations and passion will be well directed. It is with renewed and visionary focus that we will reimagine the foundations that will see Dancenorth forge boldly ahead for the next 30 years.”
