Today we performed our piece βWavesβ inspired by Richard Alstonβs style and choreographic approach.
It was nothing short of a breathtaking performance from LACD and one of our best pieces since the company started.

Our dancers took to the stage with a powerful Afro-fusion performance created in collaboration with @PhoenixLeeds as part of the Yorkshire Youth Dance Platform.
Blending strength, rhythm and storytelling, this piece celebrated culture, connection and the joy of movement.
