Expect a discussion that moves beyond David’s performance and public achievement to examine identity, resilience, reinvention and the emotional realities of creative leadership.

That same year, he performed in the inaugural ballet production reopening the newly renovated Bolshoi Theatre. In 2021, David was appointed the eighth Artistic Director of The Australian Ballet, where he currently remains leading the company.\nHelen Mantzis\nHelen Mantzis is an award winning brand strategist, marketer and cultural commentator whose career has spanned luxury, fashion, lifestyle, education and the arts.
