As an Artistic Director approaching 40, who has worked in the arts for 17 years, I currently face challenging questions within the company with dancers wanting to create families as well as create new work. I am finding that questions around pregnancy, motherhood and dance are as tricky, complex and emotionally demanding as the process of making work itself.

Since 1994, Vincent Dance Theatre (VDT) has developed a reputation for making and touring heartfelt, engaging and accessible devised dance theatre productions across the UK and beyond. VDT is an Arts Council Regularly Funded Organisation, raising the rest of our income from touring, education work, grants and G4A Lottery Funding. Our work often includes live music and is marketed towards a mature audience of theatre, music and dance lovers. As a feminist practitioner I try to reject gender and dance stereotypes within the work and am more interested in seeing feisty female performers who are physically powerful and emotionally expressive.

  1. I found this article about vincent dance theatre to be really intriguing. It just boggles my mind how many different styles of theatre that are out there in this world, and how easy it is to access those types of theatre and to learn about them through the internet is truly an awesome resource to have.
