Choreography

It was a great pleasure for me to meet Tim Gordon while working in the Australian Ballet in the late 80's, and to form a friendship that still thrives some 20 yrs later is testament to the respect that I have for Tim.
To work with a choreographer who understands how to get the most out of a dancer's natural abilities, both technically and narratively, is very exhilarating, rewarding, and of course wonderfully challenging.

I had an inspiring time being created on by Tim for the works Sonata for 7 (first trio) and the character of Steve Hart in My Name is Edward Kelly.

Performing Sonata for 7 at London’s Covent Garden is a definite highlight of my career, and working with Tim on the characterisation and virtuosity of Steve Hart was both humorous and creatively stimulating.

I really do have Tim to thank for artistically guiding me to finally work in a choreographer's company – Graeme Murphy’s Sydney Dance Company - where I have been a member for the last 17 years and currently hold the position of Rehearsal Director, and, during 2003, was Acting Artistic Director during Graeme Murphy and Janet Vernon’s sabbatical.

During my time at Sydney Dance Company I was invited and had the pleasure of performing in Sonata for 7 once again for Company Z in New Zealand.

Any Performer that gets the opportunity to work with Tim will be delighted with the discoveries they will make as an artist and, above all, will have simply tremendous fun while enjoying the creative pleasures of their craft
