Join us for Ascendance's celebration of dance, stories, film, live music and a delcious afternoon tea.

Friday 18 September, 1pm to 5pm,
at Queen's Hall, Moortown, LS17 6LE.

'Creating, Dancing and Living with Parkinson's' celebrates the work of our trainee choreographers, with new works by our performance company Fuse Dance Collective and a new film by Pishdaad Modarassi. Each of our developing artists is living with Parkinson's at a different stage of life, and each has made work that tells their own story.

You'll also see Murmurations, created and performed with groups from across Leeds and Bradford, and there's an optional chance to join in some dancing before we enjoy afternoon tea, complete with music from Georgia Jakubiak and a film by Leeds student Olivia Davies.

AND, we’ll be launching our new sector toolkit with Dr Mel Brierley, sharing our knowledge and experience of developing artists with Parkinson’s which you can use in your practice and/or organisation.
