Interact with and contribute to the Many Bodies discussion now! Read some background information here and have your say on the Many Bodies forum here.

Drawing together numerous strands of this year’s Festival programme, this symposium sets out to stimulate new debate and offer fresh perspectives on the many bodies and people engaged in contemporary dance. Following an initial dialogue between choreographers Raimund Hoghe and Tere O’Connor, with responses from a panel of dance practitioners and cultural commentators, an open discussion will probe some of the themes and issues raised in works presented by the Festival. This symposium is open to all, especially those who are interested in dance and the representation of the body.

Speed text will be provided to facilitate access to the symposium for deaf and hard of hearing people.
