Guests at QPAC‘s Cremorne Theatre witnessed an emotional performance of Natalie Weir’s final work for Expressions Dance Company as Artistic Director Everyday Requiem on Friday 12 October. Featuring The Australian Voices and guest dancers from WaW Dance, Everyday Requiem is a powerful story of one ordinary man as he revisits the memories that have created the remarkable and relatable tale of his life story, set against the backdrop of Australian history from the 1950s to today.
