Join us for a powerful two-part event blending dance, storytelling, music, and conversation.
Part one is an interactive dance workshop experience where you will
1) learn excerpts from an original memorial dance from an African-diasporic global perspective and
2) participate in a ‘dance reasoning circle’: be taken on a journey to tell your own story, contribute to a new devised choreography made in the moment talking to now.
Open to all ages and abilities. With music, and the option to take part in percussion and in an art workshop.
In the second part there will be a full performance of the memorial dance proceeded by the premiere of the new accompanying music video, followed by a roundtable discussion with members of the project team, reflecting on the project.
The event closes with a DJ set.
Free to attend. Limited spaces so please book in advance HERE. Refreshments provided.
This event is open to anyone. Under 12s should be accompanied by an adult. Spaces are limited, so please book in advance.
Please note that this event considers themes of race and enslavement.
