SPOTLIGHT: Made Local 🌟 The Whole Cake

Watch lemon cut through the sugar as Vivienne Rogis dances her way through the light and fluffy, heavy wholesome, passion infused crumble of her life in 'The Whole Cake' — returning ten years after its original debut, reimagined for a new moment, a changed body, and an expanded creative landscape.

Created with local favourite Sweet Bones Café, the six new “cakes of life” each distil a flavour of lived experience — sharp, sweet, heavy, nourishing, celebratory and delightfully unexpected — audiences will be served all six slices in an intimate dance‑theatre performance that invites them to savour what’s changed, what remains, and what it means to have your cake and eat it too.

📍 Hall Pavillion / Badimara Scout Hall
📅 27th September / 4th October
🎫 Tickets: https://events.humanitix.com/the-whole-cake

Quantum Leap Dance Australia’s recent show METTLE. Performed at The Vault.

“This is precisely the kind of work our major cultural institutions should be championing. It deserves audiences beyond Canberra. It deserves national touring, international festival conversations and continued investment.

Because if METTLE demonstrates anything, it is that the future of Australian contemporary performance is already here.

And it is in exceptionally capable hands.”
- Chenoeh Miller, Australian Stage
👏👏👏👏👏
We couldn’t agree more.

Some moments from Liz Lea’s recent show ‘Diamond’ performed at The Q - Queanbeyan Performing Arts Centre.

“From the moment she takes the stage as a glittering Goddess figure enshrouded in mist in a circle of light and performing delicate arm movements while a heavenly voice intones incantations, Lea has the audience in the palm of her hand.” - Bill Stephens OAM / Australian Art Review

This was such a dream to capture.
