Big Dance 2012
Get involved in the UK’s biggest ever celebration of dance
Taking
place across the UK, Big Dance will feature thousands of events inspired
by dance. These will take place in a variety of locations and will be open to anyone!
DanceEast is excited to be part of the Big Dance Hub for the East of England. Events will be planned from Friday 18 May – Sunday 9 September 2012 to give everyone
the opportunity to get dancing.
‘DanceEast is delighted to be the East of England Regional Hub for Big Dance 2012. This will be a unique celebration of not just dance, but of celebrating the potential of the human body to express itself physically through dance. Our aim is for everyone in the East to let themselves go!’ Assis Carreiro, Artistic Director & Chief Executive, DanceEast

Big Dance Schools Pledge 2012
After its success in 2011, the Big Dance Schools Pledge will return in 2012. The Pledge commences with a world record attempt on Friday 18 May 2012, and coincides with the start of the Olympic Torch Relay in the UK.
Renowned choreographer Wayne McGregor will be creating the choreography, and Big Dance 2012 will be working with the British Council again to spread the message worldwide.
