City's community dance day will 'welcome everyone'

The organisers of a community dance day said they hoped the event would bring people together through music and movement.

Peterborough-based arts organisation Jumped Up Theatre is hosting the event at the city's Key Theatre on Sunday.

The workshops - most of which cost £5 to join for adults - include Indian classical and Lithuanian dance styles.

"There is no judgement on the shape or age of bodies, or any definitions of what good dancing," said Kate Hall, creative producer at Jumped Up Theatre.

"Whether it's in your kitchen on a Friday night, at a family celebration, or in front of an audience, we always feel better after we get moving to music.

"This first Community Dance Day will also feel like that – everyone is welcome."

The day's schedule is also due to include live performances and film screenings.

Ms Hall said the venue was fully accessible for all visitors, and there would be a British Sign Language interpretation available all day and for the evening show.

People are required to book tickets in advance for most of the events. Some of them are free-of-charge.
