Helga Hill taught the original Rippon Lea Dancers 30 years ago, when news of her classes travelled widely and lead to a teaching appointment in Austria. Hill marks her return with Coming Home, in which performers will be adorned with her as-original court garments. The Early Music Consort of Melbourne will play reconstructed historic instruments. -- LOUISA DEASEY
