Price

Dumfries and Galloway Dance are eager to bring dance experiences to the region which may not regularly happen here. We want all residents to be able to take a chance on dance, and ensure that price is not a barrier to trying anything for the first time or getting involved. again.

Our work is traditionally pay what you choose. As this event is underwritten by DG Arts Festivals Support For Ambition Programme it requires a fixed pricing system and we have opted to subsidise tickets to keep prices as low as possible.

However, if cost is a barrier to participation please email contact@dumfriesandgalloway.dance, where we can arrange attendance free of charge – no questions asked.

If you can afford to pay more, we will provide details of how you can donate to reflect the true cost of hosting a high quality event like this at the event.

We believe dance should be affordable to all and hope you do too!

Book Now

Something Smashing have been programming nights of exuberant improvised sound and movement since 2017. Because both dancers and musicians improvise but rarely together, organisers Tess Letham, Alma Lindenhovius Skye Reynolds and Graeme Wilson invite movement artists and musicians from Scotland’s flourishing improv scene for spontaneous encounters to experiment with each other’s practice.

These uncertain and energetic sessions push performers beyond their everyday styles; the exhilaration of movement simultaneously shaping and shaped by sound makes them a magnet for audiences seeking surprise.”
