The internationally renowned disabled choreographer Marc Brew enjoys bringing people together to create a safe, brave space where people can “take risks”, let go, and be curious. Drawing on his unique perspective and skill in inclusive dance practice, the workshop will explore the themes of dance, architecture and accessibility. Brew guides the participants to discover the beauty of difference through movement led exploration, improvisation and creative tasks.
The workshop, which is open to all dancer artists, disabled and non-disabled, will end with a final performance open to the public.
