The Beacon – Wibsey Park
Pop!
Vince Virr
Vince Virr’s exhilarating dance piece explored the fears, the surprises and the joys of growing up.
Pop! was an exploration and celebration of something that we all have to go through, whether we want to or not – growing up.
Pop! was inspired by what Bradford-based dancer–choreographer Vince Virr calls ‘my vivid memories of adolescence, from my voice surprisingly breaking mid-word to the relentless growth of hair in new places’. This colourful all-ages dance show focused on the moment when our bodies burst with hormonal euphoria – unknown feelings, unseen challenges, unexpected sensations. But it was also a show about friendship, and about understanding that this individual journey is something we can share together.
