T0919374050The Place, the UK’s premier centre for contemporary dance, presents Fresh, its annual evening of dance with and for young people, on Saturday 6 December. Highlights of the programme for the evening, which uniquely features exceptional youth companies alongside professional artists, include The Place Prize entries from Ben Wright and Aletta Collins, as well as The Place’s own youth company, Shift. Renowned dance artist Rachel Krische will reprise her role as the sufferer of information overload in Aletta Collins’ Lap Dancer, which was last seen in The Place Prize finals. Ben Wright’s This Moment is Your Life, also commissioned for The Place Prize, offers the audience a lesson in disco dancing; while Shobana Jeyasingh Dance Company presents a fast-paced quartet.
