We expand what dance can be, who makes it and who experiences it. We believe dance is better when difference is celebrated.

FROM THE ARCHIVE

Across Your Heart

Featured in the image at the top of this page, Across Your Heart (1996) by choreographer Emilyn Claid was one of Candoco's first productions.
A group of people wearing colourful, vibrant clothing are smiling joyfully as they dance together in a circle. The scene is set against a textured brick wall, adding a rustic backdrop to their cheerful movements and expressive energy. The photograph is taken from a slightly low angle, with the person in the foreground turned away from the camera - adding depth and perspective to the scene.
