’Dancing Through Life’ - Director and Choreographer, Amy Campbell

Amy Campbell is one of Australia’s most accomplished dance talents with a career spanning all areas of the entertainment industry. Her extensive list of choreographic credits include Once (Darlinghurst Theatre Co), In The Heights (Blue Saint Productions in association with The Hayes Theatre), the Australian premiere of Violet, the national tour of HAIR (Sydney Opera House and Peace Productions), An Act Of God (Darlinghurst Theatre Co), Spring Awakening (ATYP), the original Australian work Guilty Pleasures (Blue Saint Productions) and Oklahoma for The Production Company.

Amy’s theatre credits include dance captain and role cover in the Australian tour of Dirty Dancing, Fame The Musical, Saturday Night Fever, Xanadu, the world premiere of King Kong Live on Stage, principal dancer in Opera Australia’s Carmen and the Resident Choreographer of The Bodyguard Musical Australia.

She was also the Choreographer/Movement Director and Assistant Director on The Sydney Symphony Orchestra’s productions of Funny Girl, Porgy and Bess and Candide.

Amy has performed domestically and internationally, dancing alongside Kylie Minogue, Flo Rida, Redfoo, Tina Arena, Natalie Bassingthwaighte, Sam Sparro and Sam and The Womp. She has choreographed on Dance Academy, The X Factor and ABC’s Giggle and Hoot.

Last year Amy choreographed Velvet Rewired and was revival choreographer for Carmen (Opera Australia). She has twice prepared to make her directorial debut originating a brand new Australian production of A Chorus Line with The Darlinghurst Theatre Company. But as with much of live theatre and the work of production houses around the country, Covid is determined to pause this essential expression.
