Dance in Australia is a report on the findings of a project carried out by the International Organisation for the Transition of Professional Dancers. The research team comprised Professor William Baumol (New York University), Professor Joan Jeffri (Columbia University) and David Throsby (Macquarie University).
This report considers the organisational structure of dance in Australia, the situation of individual dancers, the characteristics of audiences, funding issues, and dance education and training. It also includes observations about the problem of transition as it affects dancers and choreographers.
