By Mohamed Toukabri
Wed 26 Jun, 7.30pm 1 Pavilion Dance South West, Ticketed, £5 “I am not one story, I am many stories.” Mohamed Toukabri’s autobiographical solo delves deeply into the experience of a young man finding himself in dance and in Europe. From discovering street dance as a 12-year old in front of the railway station in Tunis to his 10 years of performing with renowned companies like Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, and Jan Lauwers, his movements and reflections resonate with sharp insight to explore a personal yet universal migrant experience.
SPOTLIGHT ON THE TERRACE Sat 29 Jun, 12pm – 3pm
2 Pavilion Dance South West Terrace For the first time our Festival includes an outdoor community stage featuring the freshest performances from our local dance groups. We’re excited to see all ages performing an eclectic mix from Street dance to Salsa, Contemporary dance to Chinese Folk dance. Expect a vibrant and celebratory stage with a chance for you to take part!

AMARANTHINE By Company Chameleon
Sat 29 Jun, 11am & 2.30pm Sun 30 Jun, 1pm & 3.45pm 3 Pier Approach Gripping and raw, Amaranthine is a highly physical and fast paced male and female duet, which tells the story of two people who are deeply in love, and in conflict. Combining a rich mix of dance styles, the movement is both powerful and risk taking, drawing from an amalgamation of dance techniques including contemporary dance, bboying, capoeira and partner work.
