All In

Dance exists on stages, at weddings, in clubs and at cultural gatherings. Why is it so universal? What are the boundaries between ballet and backyard parties? Can dance build bridges and ignite collective joy? 

All In is an uplifting, immersive experience that celebrates the richness and power of dance as a community unifier. It reminds us that dance can connect us in ways few other things can, facilitating social connection, joy and reflection. 

Witness some of the best dancing you’ve ever seen, up close and personal, in this bespoke production, made alongside local artists. Led by Director/Choreographer Miranda Wheen, All In features performances from Dance Makers Collective with local dancers, recreated to reflect and celebrate the unique local communities where the work is performed. 

With incredible music by award-winning composer Fiona Hill and featuring some of Australia’s greatest dancers, All In is a unique experience not to be missed, culminating in the best dance party you’ve ever been to. If the mood hits right, the dance just might infect you. 

All In is ultimately a celebration — a gathering in an increasingly divided world.  

All In premiered in Sydney Festival 2025 at Parramatta Town Hall and is undertaking a major national tour in 2026 to communities in Tasmania, New South Wales, Western Australia and Canberra.
