MADE is a revolutionary arts organisation.
In 2025 we celebrated 2 decades as a cultural tour de force in mature artistry in Tasmania, nationally and beyond.
A pioneer, an Australian leader creating spectacular work for audiences by building pathways between the mature non-professional dancer and the professional artist to create quality dance/theatre productions for global audiences in non-traditional performance spaces.
We are a celebration of movement, artform and wisdom. Founded in 2005 with twenty years of success, including national and international touring.
Our vision is to lead the dance with quality original performance, connecting people through participation, ambitiously driving a global agenda, redefining the mature body onstage.

CLASSES
WATCH
PERFORM
MADE performances celebrate dancers aged 50+. Classes are open to adults aged 18+, with dancers aged 50+ invited to join our performance ensembles. Our ensembles are at the heart of the MADE community — developing their skills, supporting their peers, and performing at venues and festivals across Australia and internationally, including Mona Foma, Ten Days on the Island, Canberra, Brisbane, King Island and Saitama, Japan.
By making their bodies articulate, the women of MADE expand our notions of how older Australians might live, not simply how they might dance.
Richness of ageing, of experience in life and of the history they have lived. I watched the show and recollected my own life. I cried and laughed.
