MÓTUS DANCE FESTIVAL: YOUR CHANCE TO BE INVOLVED IN THIS YEAR'S SPECTACULAR

Last year’s Mótus festival danced its way through the heart of town, pulling in crowds and capturing imaginations.

And the great news is that on July 9 and 10 it'll happen all over again.  

And right now, organisers are offering opportunities for dancers to step up and get involved. 

You need to make a move quickly though as deadlines are well  in sight.

Award-winning choreographer Yael Flexer is seeking MK dancers from diverse backgrounds to create a work specific to the Margaret Powell Square.

The work will draw on themes from Disappearing Acts, giving participants an exciting insight into the devising process for Flexer & Sandiland's latest touring production.

Mótus also want to form a group spanning the generations for a new work.

If you think ‘I’m too old for all of that,’ think again – you are just the person Mótus organisers are seeking.

And besides, when was the last time you were invited to be involved with an Intergenerational Performance Project and show that you can still shake a leg?

Professional and emerging companies who would like to showcase new work are also asked to make submissions for the Work in Progress platform.

And lastly, for dancers who have recently  graduated from university or conservatoire courses, comes the cunningly titled Graduate Performance Project, giving you a chance to experience the capoeira form before fusing with contemporary dance to create a new performance piece.

We mentioned deadlines and the closing date the first two mentioned is this weekend.  Don’t delay, crack on!
