Big Dreams: Dancing with Colours

Dancing with Colours is an interactive performance for young people and their grown-ups. It’s about seeing art everywhere, and in everyone. It says art can be transformative, and can help our minds when we feel worried. 

A Mind the Gap production by JoAnne Haines.

About

Co-created with learning-disabled people and their families in Bradford, Dancing with Colours is a participatory performance that blends movement, music, and most importantly, colour! 

The audience are just as important as the performers; challenging ideas of who gets to make art and how. 

Expect a joyful, sensory, (and very messy!), colourful experience as artist JoAnne invites you to dance with pastels and paint, bringing the space to life. 

Whether you prefer to watch or jump right in, JoAnne hopes you’ll leave feeling inspired to find moments of creativity in your own lives.
