the tdac Mission

After losing my mum to cancer, as well as a beautiful young dancer and a staff member, raising money for Cancer Council Tasmania just seemed like the right thing to do. Like many who have been touched by Cancer I was endeavouring to put those feeling of helplessness into something positive. There is the hope that fundraising efforts may make a difference to cancer patients and helps families going through this awful time in their lives.

So ‘Tassie Dancers Against Cancer’ TDAC was born and became 3 projects.

‘A Chance to Dance Day’ – An all day event for local dancers & singers to perform solos or in small groups. Over 150 acts performed throughout the day!

‘Tassie Dancers Against Cancer Gala Showcase’ – A collaboration of Hobarts dance and theatre schools who came together for a Gala Performance

‘Tassie Dancers Against Cancer Workshops’ – Interstate choreographer Freya List gave her time to run a day of workshops for Tassie Dancers.
