Rising sea temperatures form the heart of this piece
Two and a Half takes as its theme the 2.5°c rise in Arctic sea temperatures since the 1970s due to climate change, where lost ice, shrinking habitats and climbing sea levels are rapidly changing the world as we know it.
Fingerprint Dance is a community dance company based in West Dorset, existing to create performance opportunities for people under-represented in mainstream arts. The members are mature dance company, Grace + Growl, who have joined forces with Forest, a new performance company of adults with different abilities. Together they have created a new piece of dance theatre for Inside Out Dorset Festival.
The Fingerprint Dance team is delighted to be joined by Cornwall based choreographer and photographer Emily Alden for this project.
