We are delighted to be partnering with Project X to support dance artist KJ Clarke Davis to explore a new performance idea for babies. KJ will spend nine days in February 2025 at the THREE60 dance studio researching development in babies and children in a more theoretical way and playing in the rehearsal room with Erin Ponsonby, a country-pop singer-songwriter from Clydebank and dance artist Margaret Stevens.
KJ will receive mentoring from Hayley Earlam (Imaginate at Scottish Dance Theatre artist in February 2024) with artistic and producing support from Imaginate and Project X.
