Curator's Talk: Dancing in Fetters

Dancing in Fetters: The Culture of Convict Dance is a nationally touring exhibition that now arrives at Fremantle Prison, where it was been adapted with local stories.

Drawing on the doctoral research of Dr. Heather Clarke, the exhibition explores the relationship of dance and identity, uncovering the characters and culture at the forefront of this fundamental form of expression during the convict era.

Join national Curator Heather Clarke and Fremantle Prison's Curator Eleanor Lambert to explore the exhibition in detail, learning about the exhibition’s inception, how it was curated, as well as a deeper look into the stories and objects on display.
