Jeanefer Jean-Charles & Associates present Patois.
Patois explores what happens when two unwritten languages meet: the spoken language of patois (French Creole) and the movement language of dance.
British-Caribbean choreographer Jeanefer Jean-Charles MBE tells a story of lost languages, longing and belonging through traditional Caribbean choreography, contemporary dance and an original music score.
Join us on a journey to rediscover hidden voices and identities that are rooted in dialects that are buried within us as we reawaken stories and generations of the past.

Chad Taylor presents Closer To My Dreams
Closer To My Dreams is the journey of two young black brothers from inner-city Manchester, describing their trials and tribulations to pursue their dream of becoming professional dancers.
Will they succeed with the odds stacked against them?
The show weaves poetry/rap with Hip Hop choreography. Living very parallel lives, the story shows the journey of two brothers forging the relationships with their peers, family and romantic relationships. In a playful, heartfelt and unique take on family and friendship it explores universal questions of how we respond to the trials and tribulations that life throws at us, what path to take, when to hustle and when to let go.
Limited headphones are included as part of the performance experience but can be enjoyed without them as well.
Check back to find out how to reserve a headset.
This show is recommended for audiences aged 8yrs+ but younger children are welcome.
Saturday 13th September 1pm and 3pm performances will be BSL interpreted.
Closer to my Dreams is supported by Without Walls and commissioned by Certain Blacks, Switchflicker and Black Gold Arts. The R&D for Closer to my Dreams was supported by Blueprint: Without Walls R&D Investment Fund.
