DanceSyndrome‘s dancers have a keen interest in our relationship to nature and the solar system. Orbit is a new dance performance piece that will include a combination of solo, duet and group pieces inspired by these themes.

Parts of the show will be set against a backdrop of video footage of DanceSyndrome’s dancers performing an improvised dance piece around Antony Gormley’s Another Place sculptures on Crosby beach.

DanceSyndrome have worked with respected choreographer Aya Kobayashi and inclusive practitioner Rachel Liggitt who offered artistic mentoring to creatively weave the work together. Some content in each show will also be exclusively developed in workshops with local participants.

DanceSyndrome is dancer led, disability inspired. Performance is a vital way for DanceSyndrome’s members to communicate key messages about inclusion, teamwork and achievement, as we challenge perceptions about people with learning disabilities. You will be surprised and delighted at the passion, energy and ability of the incredible dancers who have overcome many personal barriers to achieve their potential.
