About this listen

This month on the podcast, I’m joined by Newcastle-based dance artist Benedicta Valentina Mamuini. We talk about her tour with balletLORENT’s “The Lost Happy Endings” and her amazing journey with the company. Also, we discuss new approaches to auditioning and the challenges of maintaining dance skills post-degree. Lastly, we start to unpack the creation of her collection of works in development “Other” with collaborator Lila Naruse and how the work explores themes of mixed heritage.
