‘Tracks is probably one of the best companies I’ve ever worked with. They are really phenomenal,’ says Adelaide Wood, the outgoing Company Director of Darwin’s Tracks Dance Company.

‘It’s just got to a point where there’s a bunch of other things I’d like to do. So I had to call it for myself, really. And I think what’s great about it is that I’m leaving on a complete high. I love the Territory, I love working with Tracks. There are just some other things I want to do,’ she tells ArtsHub.
