URBAN EXPLORERS

OUR FLAGSHIP YOUTH PROJECT.

Urban Explorers is Tom Dale Company’s flagship annual dance project, integrating TDC professionals with youth dancers from across Nottinghamshire

Expect evocative, free-flowing urban contemporary dance borne out of the intensity and creativity of the UK’s electronic dance music scene.

URBAN EXPLORERS’ annual spectacular performance offers young dancers from across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire the opportunity to work alongside professional dancers from the internationally renowned Tom Dale Company. Each year the company takes inspiration from TDC’s touring work to create an awe-inspiring performance for the city.

Urban Explorers particularly targets young people from areas of high deprivation and low arts engagement, giving young dancers the unique opportunity to make and perform work alongside professional dancers, supporting progression routes into creative careers or higher education.

We want to celebrate the young people’s dedication, teamwork and enthusiasm for the work.
