Switch by ACE Dance and Music
Tues 29th September, 7.30pm at Solihull Arts Complex
Change, choice, break the mould, embody new rituals and live again.
Switch draws inspiration from ancient practices and their relevance to our lives now. Dancing from the heart, ACE will pull energy from its oldest, purest source and transform it into something fresh, new and pulsating - flipping on its head the notion of tradition and the ancient.
Set in a black and white space, this is an exciting new collaborative work by ACE’s directors Gail and Ian Parmel with choreographers Douglas Thorpe (ex Phoenix Dance Company) and Andile Sotiya. Switch promises to be an exciting blend of sophisticated dance, music and visuals, accompanied by a robust and agile cast of six international and UK based dancers.
Suitable for all ages (running time approx 70mins)

Do you have any shadowing opportunities?
Dear dance artist
I regularly receive enquiries and requests from new dance graduates and emerging artists that are looking for advice and support with the first steps of their freelance career and one of the things that I always recommend is to make contact with other artists and to get as much experience as possible.
So, please do let me know any opportunities for shadowing, assisting etc that you might have...
I'll look forward to hearing from you
