Four million BC:
“...and all across Earth’s surface, the silver wings of a billion pirouetting birds seemed to set the planet alight. The others marvelled and followed suit. Then came a day when the others danced bigger, brighter, and the birds were...oh, whatever happened to the birds?”
2021:
Dagny Wants To Dance.
Grey (a human) and Dagny (a giant bird) are ready to guide you through a world of vibes, moves and joy to get you ready for the party of your dreams.
Dagny Wants To Dance is a bilingual piece that explores hope, connection and inclusion “the BSL is brilliantly integrated into the piece, in a way that felt essential by the end”
A pop-up thirty minute experience performed in BSL and English, this show is an intimate whirlwind of tender, interactive fun.
