Every performance is a world premiere! Spin a wheel, pick a card, roll a dice and decide what steps these dancers will put in each totally unique dance.

 

Is it possible to create dance totally by chance? In this story, two girls on a boring, rainy day get a visit from a magical character who shows them how to use chance to create a totally new dance! Each spin of a wheel, each chosen card and each dice roll will build a new step in the final dance.

Take a Chance on Dance is a dance theatre program about chance, decision making and improvisation.
