Enjoy some photos from last month's season of Every Stap. Ensemble member Ryan New's performance on the steps of Victorian Pride Centre explored JAZZ and PIZAZZ! Highlights include a smokey spoken word poetry moment by Nilgun, choreography with canes and hats, conversations about musical instruments with audience members, and 90 ping pong balls bouncing down the stairs.

Every Step was made possible through support from the City of Port Phillip Key Arts Organisation Program, South Melbourne Community Chest, and the City of Port Phillip Cultural Development Fund.
Image Descriptions (the staircase is the backdrop to all the photos, they are wooden and large, a wall of stairs, and have a brown red glow to them):
1 - Swann, Ryan, Nilgun and 2 audience members sit in pairs and singles on a giant wooden staircase. Ryan holds a microphone and is engaged in conversation with an audience member. The others watch this conversation unfold.
2 - Swann, Nilgun, and Ryan stand around a microphone. They are looking down at playing cards they hold in their hands.
3 - Nilgun stands, speaking into a microphone. Swann sits on the bottom of the staircase next to an open saxophone case. Ryan dances with a cane and hat at the top of the staircase.
4 - Swann, Nilgun, and Ryan sit next to each other on the staircase. They all seem to be lost in individual thought, staring into space.
