Dancing in Your Shoes is a sharing, an informal presentation of a four-day dance theatre experiment with British performer, choreographer and mentor TC Howard. It is the result of enquiries into ideas of gender, identity and selfhood, and what they mean to the participants of this multi-layered process of invention, intervention and improvisation. The event will take shape as it is witnessed by the audience. Expect a playful collision between the spontaneous and the practiced – a window into a creative process that could only happen because the co-authors have chosen to be together.

Working with unique ensembles, groups of people brought together from all walks of life, is a way of reaching out into the world to become part of something bigger than yourself. An expansive act stretching us from the inside out: opening up our physical being and igniting and challenging our empathy, understanding and trust.
