In preparation for my Dancing in Museums project, I spent some time with UK-based Full House Theatre Company (directors Harriet Hardie and Ben Miles) at the end of 2012 and with Spanish company Aracaladanza (choreographer: Enrique Cabrera) at the end of January 2013. I am extremely grateful to both companies for being so welcoming - it was invaluable for me to spend time observing Full House's rehearsals for Rapunzel and Aracaladanza's rehearsals for Constelaciones.

The final week and a half of our Dancing in Museums research consisted of return visits to the 5 primary schools I worked with in week 1; research on-site at The Collection Museum, with children from Monks Abbey School on the 18th March, and then working towards a sharing for an small audience on the 25th March; initial work in response to music from Max Perryment; workshops with writer Anna Selby.

​There's still a lot more video to process, but hopefully this first edit gives a good sense of the workshops we led with children from 5 primary schools as part of our Dancing in Museums research.

​Here's a first glimpse of some of the edited video footage from our Dancing in Museums R&D.

Just a few photos of the imaginary/future creatures that the children from North Scarle School created on Wednesday and Stuart and Lucy performing for the Year 4 children at The Meadows School on Thursday.
