Sheffield's Third Bite Dance (the University's resident group of older performers) are
mostly in our 60s and 70s, with a range of bodies and movement backgrounds, and
James Pett and Travis Clausen-Knight - PCK Dance - are intensely trained artists
who have performed internationally, from the Bolshoi to Sadlers Wells. So when
PCK made us a dance and even shared their stage with us at the Drama Studio one
wintry weekend last year, it was transforming. PCK's generosity, setting us a piece
full of flow and shifting patterns, and their trust that the piece would work with, not
despite, our idiosyncrasies of age and experience, inspired us.
