Project Y new comission

Next July I will be creating a new work in Glasgow for Project Y, the 2013 performance course of YDance, Scotland's national youth dance organisation.
 
The course brings together 25 talented young dancers and gives them the chance to work with professional choreographers to create an original programme of dance pieces that will be toured around Scotland in the Summer. Besides me, this year the dancers will be working with Filip Van Huffel (Artistic Director of Retina Dance Company), Diana Loosmore (from Scottish Ballet) and YDance Artistic Director Anna Kernick.
 
Working with young dancers  is always very exciting. I hope I can contribute to their artistic development, as much as I am looking forward to their fresh and original creative input. I can't wait to get in the studio and meet the next generation of Scottish dancers!
 
Here's a video from past editions of Project Y. If you want more information about the course click HERE.
