Show past things to do

We specialise in Dance, Theatre & Participatory Arts with a commitment to Inclusion and Diversity at the heart of everything we do.

Creating interactive work that is bright, imaginative, and joyful, our accessible performances, creative projects, workshops and training experiences allow audiences and participants to think differently.

We care about people having opportunities to access the arts. So, we look for the gaps to identify who is missing out. By putting people first we create opportunities to experience dance in new and unusual ways.
