Dancers taking libraries to the next step

Besi Besemar February 5, 2015

EdGeDancers will feature in an event in Brighton this weekend, promoting libraries as places for exploring ideas – and not just by printed words on a page.

Evolving in Conversation is an Arts Council-funded project, locally centred on the council’s Library Services.

On Saturday, February 7,  a showcase event will include dancers from EDge asking library-goers for their thoughts on any issues and interpreting those in a unique performance of The Dance WE Made by Tim Casson.

You get to be the choreographer – no experience required!

The event also features renowned poet John Agard, whose work is taught in schools through the National Curriculum.  He will perform his specially commissioned poem Voice for the first time.

Specially commissioned creative writing, alongside work by local adults, is also featured, addressing the question of how individuals can change society.

There are performances, talks, workshops and an exhibition.
