Join us for this Online Dance Flashmob, having learned some of your favourite choreographies from Moving Together & …let’s move together!
About this Event
Moving Together is a creative research collaboration between anthropology researcher Dr Bronwyn Tarr and physical theatre company Justice in Motion. It explores loneliness and the power of movement & music to affect how distant or connected we feel.
Can synchronised music and movement help us connect with each other?
Dance to a specially created soundtrack inspired by the voices of people experiencing loneliness and accompanied by original music from Quentin Lachapele.
We’re hosting online tutorials from 5-10 October with our team of dancers who are demonstrating and teaching moves.
Dancers: Krystal Campbell, Junior Cunningham, Miles Kearley, Anja Meinhardt, Gemma Peramiquel, Daniel Seven

The event will take place using the Zoom platform and starts on Saturday 24 October at 16:00 (GMT) ending at 17:00 (GMT)
