The Mill presents the final showing of our 2022 Breakout Residency Program. 

We welcome you to view a showing of new solo dance work in development by renowned Adelaide independent dancer and choreographer Daniel Jaber, as part of his Free-range Residency. The showing will reveal the content being explored and a Q&A following the showing will take you inside the creation process of his newest work.

    Jaber has created work for Australian Dance Theatre, Expressions Dance Company (now Australasian Dance Collective), Houston Ballet 2, Qantas Australian Tourism Awards, Dance Moms, Dubai Festival, Architanz Tokyo and was the Creative Director of LW Dance Hub (now Dance Hub SA) in 2015. He has choreographed new works on many tertiary institutions, universities and colleges throughout Australasia and the US, including QUT, Adelaide College of the Arts, California State University (LA & Fullerton), Transit Dance and the New Zealand School of Dance. 

    Daniel’s dance training began in Adelaide with Christine Underdown (Dancecraft Studios) and Barbara Komazec (Barbie Jayne Dance Centre). He further pursued his training through the Queensland University of Technology, Queensland Ballet Company Professional Year and the Adelaide College of the Arts before joining Australian Dance Theatre as a trainee dancer, under the direction of Garry Stewart, at the age of 17.
