Dancer

Ian and Gary love to dance.

They are happy to dance any time of the day or night, indoors or outdoors, come rain or shine. They are happy to dance in a club, in the street, in a tunnel, in Morrisons, in a kitchen or bathroom, or even on the roof of a black cab.

Sometimes their dancing is all jerky and thrusty, sometimes it's all floaty and ethereal, sometimes it's all flaming and outrageously camp, and sometimes they're sitting, silent and completely still.

But they are always dancing inside.

A performance created by Ian Johnston, Gary Gardiner and Adrian Howells, Dancer is a gentle provocation on what it is to be a 'dancer'. Ian and Gary both love to dance in public. Neither are trained dancers. Ian and Gary are two artists asking questions about visibility, opportunity and experiences - as well as sharing a few of their dances.

This show takes place on Spirit Level (Blue Room) at Royal Festival Hall.
