Dance this summer
About
Touch Wood
A season of raw ideas danced on a bare wooden floor.
10 unique nights, featuring over 30 leading dancemakers.
With just a bare wooden floor and a simple lighting set-up, Touch Wood is the place where Choreodrome and invited artists first expose their summer works in progress to an audience, lifting the lid on creative developments that are usually hidden in The Place's studios.
Each unique night of dance comes together at the last minute and line-ups will be announced online. To check the evolving programme of artists, register for updates and book tickets, go to www.theplace.org.uk/touchwood
Rui Horta
Local Geographic
Rui Horta?s latest solo for actor/dancer/performer Anton Skrzypiciel is a reflection on identity and a study of personal geography that uses the body as a tool to discover the world.
One of Portugal?s most senior choreographers, Rui Horta was founding director of S.O.A.P. Dance Theatre for which he created six acclaimed works, many of which were performed at The Place.
