New ticket release just announced. Book now.

Carriageworks and Sydney Dance Company present New Breed, an annual celebration of the best emerging Australian choreography, generously supported by The Balnaves Foundation.

The four New Breed choreographers for 2020 are Joel Bray from Melbourne, Sydney-based Raghav Handa and Sydney Dance Company dancers Chloe Leong and Jesse Scales. This talented group has created Covid-safe, socially distanced new works on members of Sydney Dance Company; a reflection of how art and creativity can respond to this unprecedented time and its impact on performance.

Please note:

Carriageworks has been granted an exemption by NSW Health to increase audiences up to 75% of capacity. Patrons will not be socially distanced from other audience members within the theatre, we will continue to seat you with your booking group. Please note that this capacity condition may change in the future. For performances at Carriageworks a mask is required at all times within performance spaces for patrons 12 years and older. Please bring your own mask. Masks will be available by donation. By entering Carriageworks Public Space you agree to wear a mask inside the theatre, if you refuse to do so you may be denied entry or asked to leave the venue.
