Dance Please!

Dance Please!  an interactive playground of movement, light and sound.

Come inside a digital world of magical animations and spectacular sounds created by Italy’s leading children’s theatre Company TPO.

In Dance Please!  you can re-mix rhythms and make new sounds by dipping your hand under the light.  Splash virtual colour across the room by shaking your body or throw wild shapes by wiggling a finger.

Move, play and take part in a unique performance with TPO’s award winning technology in a new collaboration with British choreographer Tom Dale.
