The Queensland Ballet Academy Dancers from the Pre-Professional Program are getting ready for Aspire ’21, a showcase of their artistic and technical talents.

“Our annual performances of Aspire have always served as an opportunity for the Academy to present our graduating cohort in challenging and diverse choreographic works within a professional performance setting. The dancers are challenged with performing both ensemble and soloist works, as well as with discovering and developing the technical and artistic elements fundamental to our artform.”
Christian Tátchev

Queensland Ballet Academy Director

This year’s program features classical and neoclassical works including Tàtchev’s Matador Suite inspired by scenes from Don Quixote and the Academy’s Resident Choreographer Paul Boyd’s Intimate Dialogues which explores the many forms in which intimacy is expressed.

“Our Pre-Professional Program dancers are on the brink of entering into the profession of dance, so I have tried to create an atmosphere that allows them to feel safe to explore their artistic skills with guidance.

I hope the audience appreciates the aesthetics and detail of the choreography in Aspire ’21, and that they are swept away with emotion.” – Paul Boyd

The Queensland Ballet Academy Pre-Professional Program has been developed for dancers who have finished their academic schooling and serves as a finishing year for those who wish to pursue a professional career as a dancer in a company.
