1st July ’16 @ The Barbican Theatre

Celebrating the breadth and depth of Dance across the South West, a platform put together by SpinDrift Dance Collective, Barbican Theatre and Plymouth Dance.

The platform format encourages dancers of all ages to share the stage and develop a dialogue that will hopefully lead to future collaborations, networking and aspirational conversations. The platforms are always a mix of youth dance, community dance and local professional work and often there are pieces within the evening that include all of the above. They literally want to merge the local dance ecology together and celebrate the tremendous talent and energy that we have in the South West. What better way to celebrate than to dance together?

This summers theme is COLLABORATION. Each piece that will feature in the platform must have a collaborative element so we can really get our message across. This could be joining companies up, working with live musicians, artists or spoken word, dance for camera, collaboration within the process or winging it on the night with the audience…!

If you think you have the perfect piece or the perfect idea then please email suziespindrift@yahoo.co.uk for an application form.

Each work must be under 12minutes long and will need to be suitable for a multigenerational audience.

If you would like to collaborate with another dance company or artist and don’t know who to ask then also get in touch.

The deadline for applications is Wednesday 1st June.
