We create performance work that is presented at prestigious festivals and venues around Australia and internationally. Our workshop program continues to be an incubator for dancers, It creates a pathway for artists to pursue a career in dance. It is the past successes of Restless that have caused the arts sector to be devastated by the news that The Australia Council for the Arts will no longer fund the company through the multi-year funding program (2022 - 2024). It is important that Australia understands the impact this decision will have on the company. Whilst we have funding to continue to produce work, our operational funding ceases at the end of 2021."

• "Kath Duncan, Gerard Goggin (2002). 'Something in Your Belly': Fantasy, Disability and Desire in My One Legged Dream Lover. Disability Studies Quarterly 22 (4), pp: 127-144."
  In this article we explore fantasy, disability and desire in the groundbreaking 1998 Australian TV documentary My One-Legged Dream Lover. Based upon self-reflexive documentary conventions, the video uncovers journalist-cum-freak raconteur Kath Duncan's explorations into the world of amputee fetish. Duncan is a double congenital amputee. She says," I've tried most things men, women, sex toys, unusual locations, dominance and submission games but I wanted to know what it was like to be desired because of my impairments." Gerard Goggin is a temporarily able-bodied (or TAB) academic with his own history of queer desire and a personal investment in exploring issues of difference. Duncan's and Goggin's collaboration includes accessing each other's edgier fantasies, aiming to give voice to some of the negotiations, anxieties, pleasures, and risks we have taken, speaking across the chasm of our personal histories, different genders and respective bodies.
