About
Join Cool Company, a new dance improvisation ensemble with people aged 60+ who come together to experience how we imagine, watch, think, share and move in our everyday lives.
This 6 week series of workshops is facilitated by choreographer and movement specialist Deane McQueen, retired Head of Performing Arts (Leicester College) and founding member of Dance 4. Using the current art exhibition as inspiration, everyday movements are refashioned from the ‘ordinary’ to the extraordinary using a wide variety of simple exercises, imagination and humour. Radical in method and approach, the key to these sessions is the integration of social and creative elements whilst enabling participants to support each other, working together to include everybody’s experiences and value differences. Participants can expect to learn new things and build positive relationships, whilst finding a safe space to release inhibitions.
The first session is a FREE introductory session; an opportunity to visit Nottingham Contemporary, meet Deane McQueen and other participants and ask questions.
