The podcast is hosted by Rianne Svelnis and co-hosted by members of the company. The aim is to facilitate discussions about artistic practice, access, disability, dance, politics and creative process with artists who we admire and/or are curious about.

Our work brings together artists with and without disabilities to explore the endless creative possibilities in difference.

We aim to dismantle assumptions, biases and default notions around contemporary dance, the theatre and the dancing body.
