From a scratch to a wiggle, everyone can dance!
Picture the scene. A sofa pops up in a public space. What follows is a playful, interactive celebration of movement –
our dancers bounce, wheel and jump, using the sofa and inspiration from the audience to challenge perceptions of
who can dance. This spirited, comic piece is set to the tunes of a trombone player, donning a pink tutu!
This new piece challenges perceptions of who can dance; the performance creates an opportunity for disabled artists
and young people to interact, encouraging young people to view disability and diversity in a positive way.
As part of the structure of this piece, our performers and musician will also be able to erupt into varying comic set
pieces. From the iconic bolero to street dance, ska to contemporary, these moments add humour, colour and attract
a crowd.
SPRUNG is a lively and playful piece which thrives off direct interaction with our audience. It stretches the work of
the company into the territory of non-verbal and pop-up performance; enriching our existing outdoor palette whilst
celebrating everybody’s ability to dance.

Kazzum is for young audiences: We make playful theatre in unusual spaces.
Led by new Artistic Director, Heidi Vaughan, Kazzum creates all our shows from scratch, working with the best
professionals, our offer is always fresh, playful and unexpected. At Kazzum, we believe in expanding and enriching
our practice; dance is a new and exciting venture for our program of outdoor work.
We empower emerging artists. In the case of Sprung, Dan Martin will embark on his first piece of professional
choreography in this pop-up style (www.danmartindance.com).
In addition to this, we’re quietly inclusive: it’s in our being. We are a cultural leader in youth arts participation and a
high profile advocate for disabled artists. Our shows can happen anywhere, so we can take them to people who have
few other occasions to encounter theatre.
We challenge conventional understandings and encourage our audience to explore the world around them. We want
theatre to be as dynamic as the world in which young people live.
