Interactive performances of 'Love Games'

Joan's latest work Love Games will be performed as part of Scottish Dance Theatre's interactive performances at Dundee Rep Theatre  and the Tramway  (Glasgow) the coming 15th and 24th of November '11.

SDT Interactive are performances aimed at young and new audiences who are not familiar with theatre and contemporary dance. Artistic Director, Janet Smith, SDT dancers and SDT technical team explain and show how dance theatre is made through performances of small sections of the current programme. The audience is then invited to discuss their own ideas about the work and the show ends with a final question and answer session.
