Enjoyed this conversation with Neil Ieremia about Black Grace dance company and his life as a choreographer – we start with his childhood and learned about his upbringing, the role of his parents, the impact of a childhood illness and sense of identity from a young age. We also talk about the origins of Black Grace and the first dance he choreographed at age 13. We then discuss the role of art and dance and how it can have an impact on society itself, commenting on the past and present. Finally we discuss the future plans for Black Grace.
