Dance Dare's

Dance Dare's are one day dance marathon challenges around a theme. Something like a Game Jam or Writers competition but this time it's about dance. Participating dancers are to create and present their new work on a theme on the same day before a small audience. Every time a dance dare is held the participants are presented with a unique theme they will have to work with. These can be suggestions like: The floor is lava, a world without man, time moves in a different direction. More open theme's such as: contact, isolation, interaction. Every dare is different and is to challenge the artists to make the best with the short time they have. At the end of the day a small audience of friends and family of the participants can view the created dare of that day.
