PRIVATE DANCER

Janice Parker Dance Company

A dance that is never seen... alone, at home, we give it our all... our best performance... ever. Janice Parker's extraordinary new work plays with our expectations and emotions through unique choreography created by some of Scotland's best disabled dancers.

The spectacular Penthouse is transformed by artist Richard Layzell and fourteen performers moving in
and around a real sized luminous house.

In a rare glimpse of a personal world you will see the most beautiful dancing, and be offered the treat of watching alone. We might let you in...!

This project originated from a residency supported by The Work Room, Dance House, Glasgow and The Scottish Arts Council's Disability Arts Open Fund.

Commission as part of Unlimited, the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad programme.

The project is principally funded by the National Lottery through the Olympic Lottery Distributor, and is delivered in partnership between London 2012, Arts Council England, the Scottish Arts Council, Arts Council of Wales, Arts Council of Northern Ireland and the British Council.

Here's what the Programming Panel said:

Parker was selected because of the way her piece purports to challenge the perceptions of dance and the way that this art form is enjoyed. Private Dancer creates an intimate and emotionally charged dance experience that the panel found captivating.
