It was easy to feel the raw emotion, fragility and anxiety that these artists experienced during the closures and it was expressed loudly and clearly in their dance performances. Hope, perseverance and strength was the overarching theme here.’ - SCENESTR, Luisa Ryan.

Response Interrupted is a short performance work created for Australasian Dance Collective’s Youth Esnemble.
The piece embraces young bodies as turning points, figures that inherit great responsibility in times of change. The piece is ultimately an expression of empowerment and catharsis for young people to embrace self truths, to relinquish form and locate an invigorated freedom within inherited responsibility.
