Come explore the rich dance heritage of Riverside’s past, discover the legacy of collaboration that continues here today, and be a part of building Riverside’s vibrant future!
Inspired by Riverside’s archival initiative, this series of workshops will focus on exploring the principles and approaches to movement from artists such as Michael Clark, Rosemary Butcher, Gabby Agis, and Charles Moulton.
Over the course of four playful sessions, participants will use creative movement and composition exercises to learn about Riverside Studios’ dance history. We will explore how embodying this heritage can help us find our own artistic voices while creating new collaborative spaces. The project will be led by a team of diverse movement dance-experienced and is open to experienced movers of different technical backgrounds.
The workshops will culminate in an evening of dance and spoken word (Monday 29th May at 7pm), where participants will share the stage with members of the community in a moving celebration of the Riverside of yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
