TIME 2011, written & created by SLIDE, was only possible due to the belief, vision and support from NT dance icon, Sarah Calver @tsarahcalver . She began a new course at Darwin High School - Creative Arts Dance - pioneering this course. Along with her 9 CAD students & some generous local artists; Kathryn Crocker (nee Lawrence), Damien Pree, Immanuel Dado, Julia Quinn @chocolatequinn & production technician, Matt James, along with the enthusiastic support from DHS Principal, Trevor Read - SLIDE began its journey and debuted TIME 2011. ‘Funding’ came in the way of extensive fundraising led & driven by Sarah through the DHS Dance Department. So TIME was funded by our local community ❤️ The 2011 version was a much smaller cast on the Amphitheatre stage, featuring minimal lighting, a donated car, a powerful story and extraordinary choreography. We are proud of our journey. Here’s to history and the people that make magic happen. SLIDE has had 6 seasons for TIME, the first being 2011, then 2012, 2015, 2020, last years 2024 and this year 2025! If you are keen to donate to SLIDE, their annual program or support the Mentor Program, please get in touch. By Youth, for Youth, powered by our local community. Tickets for all our 2025 shows can be found at @darwinentertainmentcentre website and the link in our bio 💕 (fb)
With heavy hearts, we say goodbye to TIME ‘25🤎 What a special journey this has been. We feel incredibly privileged to have had the opportunity to share this important story with our beautiful audiences, and hope that we have made a profound impact on our community’s awareness of the repercussions of reckless driving on our roads. SLIDE dedicates TIME to all those impacted by road death🤍 Thank you to our wonderful leaders, Joanna Noonan and Julia Quinn, as well as our talented crew, Jerome Chapman, Tomm Lydiard, Bill Surtees, Kylie Lefebvre and Sean Palmer. Congratulations to our brilliant cast of young people and mentors, and a massive thank you to all the friends, families, volunteers and professional partners who have made this possible. You are the heartbeat of SLIDE. SLIDE is a non-profit organisation with charitable status, and relies on contributions made by our community and volunteers. If you or someone you know is interested in pursuing a philanthropic relationship with SLIDE, please contact us directly via admin@slideyouthdance.com.au You are clever, you are important, and you are loved. Until next time, the SLIDE team xx 📸 @js.imagery (fb)

At its heart LIFE follows the lives ofteenagers whose safe place is where the music is.
