The Sticky Dance
Second Hand Dance
8 performances between Fri 17 May 2024
An interactive, engaging and colourful performance installation for children and their families.
Three dancers shimmy through the audience weaving a tapestry of sticky tape in this tactile dance performance for young children. They invite you to tape, stick and groove, to see and feel sound or to be still, watch and listen. Audiences are encouraged to explore freely, choosing how they engage, and turning the rules upside down.
The Sticky Dance is co-created by Rosie Heafford & Takeshi Matsumoto, with designs by Alison Brown (Scottish Dance Theatre, Barrowland Ballet), and a soundscape by Dinah Mullen (Rachel Mars Forge, Kate Cross/Tim Bell Squirrel)
Co-commissioned by Southbank Centre, The Place and South East Dance. Supported using public funding by Arts Council England.
Presented in partnership with South East Dance.
