Hailing from Wales, France, the Netherlands, Italy and Canada, the choreographers will be sharing their work in each country as part of the international partnership programme Dance Roads. Cardiff’s very own Jo Fung will be representing the UK as the choreographers dance into Chapter Arts Centre at the end of the month. Carol Blade of Coreo Cymru, one of the host organisations, said, “The touring programme of five short works promises a diverse evening of quality contemporary dance, ideal for the first-time dance audience and regular attendees.” The tour aims to develop and expand the provisions currently available to the small-scale contemporary dance sector in Europe and will be accompanied by numerous workshops with the participating artists, mentors and co-organisers.
