Tom Stubbings - Opening the Heart - York
A mindfulness practice, a time to communicate fully. A growth in the understanding of the connection bridged at the heart. Resurfacing in the present moment. A simple and powerful piece of movement, aiming to leave the audience aware, of how they feel, their heart and their breath.
Feet of the Ground Dance - Passing Through - London
A highly articulate, physically daring and vibrant piece of dance which captivates audiences and brings the present alive.
JUCK - Sweden
JUCK is Swedish and means “hump”. JUCK is about freedom of expression, sexuality, having fun and expanding perspectives on femininity and gender.
Ryan Thompson - Kidulthood - Act #1: What Time Is It Mr Wolf? - Leeds
Kidulthood is a series of exercises reclaiming and reliving childhoods lost or spent.
Games and scenarios are facilitated harking back to a time before the tiresome monotony of adult life, for which preparation begins during this age of blissful unawareness.
SLAP (Salacious Live Alternative Performance) are very excited to announce our 3rd event in the city of York.
The SLAPmoves prize is all about emerging art from the next generation of pioneering talent. SLAP has invited recent graduates and final year students (of dance/theatre/film whose themes of focus are based upon ‘movement’) to submit proposals of new work.
Throughout the evening you will have the chance to see our shortlisted artists and works, an eclectic mix of dance, live art, film and music. Showcasing not only local talent but international artists. The audience also has a say in who is deserving of the prize.
The successful artist or company will then be offered a place in Yorkshire dance’s spring platform dedicated to the region’s most exciting emerging talent, taking place on May 2nd. The artist will also receive two days of studio space, a one to one meeting with a producer, artistic mentoring and technical support.
The short listed artists will be announced here throughout today.
On the 17 April 2014, The Duchess will be playing host to an exciting artistic performance opportunity fronted by the Yorkshire dance agency, SLAP (Salacious Live Alternative Performance).
