Greg Horsman is an Australian ballet choreographer, teacher, and retired dancer.[1] In 2022, Dance Magazine Australia described him as "formerly one of the Australian Ballet's most poetic and classical of principal artists."[2] He and his then-wife Lisa Pavane were a popular partnership during the 1980s and early 1990s,[3] with the Washington Post referring to their "conspicuously poised, elegant dancing" and the New York Times calling them "two perfectly trained and appealing first-class dancers" during a performance of Giselle.[4][5][6] Horsman was appointed Acting Artistic Director Queensland Ballet in July 2024. Horsman has been Assistant Artistic Director Queensland Ballet since 2023 and was previously the Chief Ballet Master and Director of Artistic Operations for the Queensland Ballet since 2013.[7][1]
