Vincent Dance Theatre latest production If We Go On is touring the UK. Based at The Workstation, Vincent Dance Theatre has been making and touring devised dance theatre work since 1994. Artistic Director Charlotte Vincent is ‘one of the UK’s most challengingly theatrical choreographer-directors’ (The Observer), producing middle-scale productions every other year.
If We Go On is a series of individual acts that lay bare the mechanics of theatre, placing the investigation of language at the centre of the work. Through miniature dances and stuttering songs, militant manifestos and extended exits, If We Go On embraces uncertainty, hesitancy and not knowing with a dark, intelligent humour.
An exceptional ensemble of multi-tasking performers and musicians morph words into movement, shunt gesture into sound and at times burst into song to create a performance they can believe in. In a relentless succession of splintered transactions, where words lose their strength, music strains to be heard and movement meanders into exhaustion and incoherence, If We Go On asks: If you had one last dance in you, what shape would it take?

If We Go On is funded by Grants for the Arts through the Arts Council of England, co-commissioned by Sheffield Theatres, Newbury Corn Exchange, Peak Performances @ Montclair State University and Hull City Council and supported by The Junction and Danceworks UK.
