Clip description

Choreographer Graeme Murphy directs dancers in rehearsal for a cricket ballet. We then see the Sydney Dance Company performing the ballet, and end with Murphy talking about what he looks for in Australian dancers as we see a rehearsal of another piece.

Curator’s notes

A nice glimpse of one of Australia’s best known choreographers.
