  • ADT in the Media

Australian Dance Theatre (ADT) is Australia's pre-eminent contemporary dance company. Constantly in demand for its innovative productions, Australian Dance Theatre is also Australia's most active touring dance company having toured the world extensively with multiple seasons in London and the UK, New York and wider USA, Tokyo, Korea, Singapore, Canada, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Germany, Ireland, Austria, France, the Netherlands, Portugal, Luxembourg and Monaco.

Garry Stewart has been the Artistic Director of Australian Dance Theatre for 11 years. Stewart's distinct choreographic style requires Australian Dance Theatre dancers to train in a number of specific physical disciplines. As well as contemporary dance techniques and classical ballet, they are coached in elements of martial arts, breakdance, gymnastics, contact improvisation and yoga. The result is a fusion of forms, which constitutes a unique choreographic palette.

Garry Stewart is globally renowned for his ingenious approach to dance which frequently incorporates other artistic mediums such as photography, robotics and architecture. His work serves as an intelligent and critical progression of how we perceive and comprehend contemporary dance.
