Local dancers join Candoco on Palace stage

Posted onPosted on 12th May

Young dancers from across Nottinghamshire will take to the stage this weekend as part of the Unify Inclusive Dance Festival, which has seen disabled and non-disabled dancers from Inspire Youth Arts and Next Door Dance come together to work with internationally-acclaimed Candoco Dance Company.

All the dancers took part in a week-long intensive workshop, thinking about the new post-pandemic world and how things have changed, to create this new, specially commissioned piece You’re on mute.

Candoco Dance Company will also be performing one of its repertoire pieces Set and Reset / Reset as a highlight to the festival.

Additional youth dance companies from Inspire and Hub Dance (Lincolnshire) will be taking part.

The performances will also be audio described with headsets available from staff in the foyer.

The performance takes place on Sunday, 15th May, from 6pm at Mansfield Palace Theatre.

Tickets can be booked online and you can see behind-the-scenes trailers at www.inspireculture.org.uk/whats-on/events/unify-inclusive-dance-festival-feat-candoco-dance-company/
