About Magpie Dance 'Borrowed Land Festival'

 Join Magpie Dance as we learn about dances from indigenous cultures around the world.

The Borrowed Land Festival will comprise a multisensory zone where you can learn about dances from multiple cultures that link to different aspects of nature.

You can play musical instruments, virtually explore the Amazon rainforest, view planet Earth from outer space and see holograms of weird and wonderful creatures appear via a range of immersive technologies!

Magpie dancers will be leading workshops in a range of dance styles accompanied by live music – you are welcome to have a go or just enjoy watching.

This will be followed by a full company performance by Magpie Dance.

This performance is a culmination of our current year’s artistic theme 'Borrowed Land', which is about connecting people with learning disabilities to indigenous cultures and dances related to nature from around the world.

Our dancers have learnt about the history and culture behind different dances and created their own live and digital performances based on what they have learnt.

Doors open at 3:30pm
