Third Bite Dance: PCK Residency with 50+CDS

Sheffield's Third Bite Dance (the University's resident group of older performers) are

mostly in our 60s and 70s, with a range of bodies and movement backgrounds, and
James Pett and Travis Clausen-Knight - PCK Dance - are intensely trained artists
who have performed internationally, from the Bolshoi to Sadlers Wells. So when
PCK made us a dance and even shared their stage with us at the Drama Studio one
wintry weekend last year, it was transforming. PCK's generosity, setting us a piece
full of flow and shifting patterns, and their trust that the piece would work with, not
despite, our idiosyncrasies of age and experience, inspired us.

PCK Dance are on tour again and this November, after they have performed their
new work, The Panic Room, at the University Drama Studio, James and Travis will
be working with TBD for four days, developing a new dance for us to keep. We are
looking forward to feeling stretched and empowered again by these two beautiful
dance artists.
