Tasdance is searching for a bold new Artistic Director. The new Artistic Director will have the unprecedented opportunity for artistic leadership of the company through its next exciting phase as a “company of makers”, to position Tasdance as a vibrant company of difference in the national dance sector whilst also reflecting the culture, the demographic character and economic realities of Tasmania.
