Brendan O’Connell will leave his role as Director of Programming at Sydney Dance Company (SDC) on 30 April in order to focus on his independent practice as a curator, connector and creator.
O’Connell announced his decision on LinkedIn, saying, “I’m privileged to have worked closely with the Company in establishing this brand new leadership position and helping to refine its true purpose; leading the Company’s international engagement strategy and securing presentations at many high-profile festivals for 2025-2027; supporting its sector development initiatives such as New Breed and INDance; and working on many exciting artistic strategies with Artistic Director Rafael Bonachela for the years ahead.”
