DTF: Doing The Fringe

Tony Mills - Artistic Director of Dance Base

27 Jul 2024

Description

Tony Mills, the artistic director of Dance Base, joins us to explain what’s happening at the fringe this year. Dance Base was started as a charity in 1993 to encourage and develop dance of all styles. In 2001, the purpose-built centre was opened in the heart of Edinburgh’s Grassmarket, becoming Scotland’s National Centre for Dance. Fast forward to September 2021, when Tony Mills was appointed artistic director. Dance Base Festival 24 (in partnership with Assembly) is the first full programme curated under his tenure, and the second in partnership with Assembly. This year they will present 274 performances of 29 shows by 33 companies from 2-25 August. Tony’s background is in break dancing, but he has also turned his hand to choreography and studying to become a vet.
