Over and Over (and over again)
7.30pm
Overview
Candoco Dance Company
Time stretches. The dance floor is a paradise. This moment is all there is. We are lifted by the lights, held by the music. Our hard edges soften and our hearts swell – finding place, finding ground, finding home.
Join Candoco and Dan Daw Creative Projects on a beat-driven, joyful journey to a perfect rave – a place where everyone is welcome and where you love doing something so much that you would never want to stop.
Told through Dan Daw’s unique weaving of dance, narrative and iconography and co-directed by storytelling raver Stef O’Driscoll, ‘Over and Over (and over again)’ looks at what happens when a beat takes hold, and we dare to colour outside the lines to create our own dance-floor utopia.
