Narrative dance theatre piece by Project Dance, choreographed by James Bamford with an original score by Charles Harrison, touring the UK in spring 2027.
Project Dance bring their narrative dance theatre piece BUSK to The Albany Theatre on Tuesday 30 March 2027, as part of a UK tour running through the spring. It's a story of love, hope and redemption set in a pub called the Fox and The Fiddle, following a broken family transformed by their encounters with a vulnerable travelling musician. The choreography draws on classical, contemporary and street dance forms, and the whole thing is written and choreographed by James Bamford alongside Grace Noelle, with an original score by Charles Harrison.
There's a bit of a backstory to this one. BUSK started as a youth-company production with 45 dancers, and Project Dance is now taking that youth-made work into the professional repertoire. Bamford founded Project Dance in 2018 when he was 14, after seeing his mother work extra hours to pay for his dance training while talented peers lacked access. The production is part of the More Than Dance programme, supported by the National Lottery through Arts Council England, and it's touring the UK throughout the spring of 2027. A Fine Times Recorder review called it 'an exciting, sad, thoughtful, provocative, engaging and joyous dance theatre work'.
