Daniel Riley's THE HUM is a new dance-theatre work featuring a first-time collaboration with Australian Dance Theatre and the Australian Ballet and is centred upon the tangible yet invisible creative connection between performers, orchestra and audience. THE HUM is enriched by a specially commissioned score for a full orchestra by celebrated composer Deborah Cheetham Fraillon AO, the first female First Nations composer to be commissioned by The Australian Ballet.Taungurung fashion designer and educator Annette Sax will design bespoke contemporary costumes inspired by the textures and elements of the land.

Alice Topp's Paragon is a powerful tribute to The Australian Ballet's origins, strength and evolution. This work welcomes some of the company’s most iconic former dancers back to the stage to dance alongside current company dancers, in an emotional tribute that honours the company’s 60-year history. The cast of former dancers includes Madeleine Eastoe, Leanne Stojmenov, Sarah Peace, David McAllister, Paul Knobloch, Jessica Thompson, Simon Dow, Lucinda Dunn, Steven Heathcote, Fiona Tonkin, Julie da Costa (Melbourne only) and Rachel Rawlins (Sydney only).
