Dorset Youth Dance and The Originals (Dusk til Dark 2026)
Dorset Youth Dance and The Originals, our inclusive performance group for ages 18–25, come together to perform beneath Wave by Squidsoup.
Taking inspiration from the light and sound installation on Westham Bridge, this dance piece explores the element of water and the beautiful movements of the ocean; from rolling waves and gentle ripples to the ever-changing flow of water.
Choreographed collaboratively by Emily Thompson-Smith and the performers, the piece is an exciting opportunity for our dancers to explore improvisation and their own creative voices as they respond to the wave of light above them.
This event is free to attend and no booking is required.

This event is produced by Activate, presented as part of Dusk til Dark by We Are Weymouth.
