#CreateDangerously is a growing group of dancers and performers focused on sharing personal stories about our bodies and the things that manifest in them: mental health, physical health, sexuality, identity, traumas, and more. We work within the broad realms of dance, physical theatre, and performance art. We are directors, choreographers, stunt coordinators, dancers, actors, performers, educators and activists.

 

Within our collective there are queer, trans, mad, female identifying, body diverse and/or emerging artists of various ages. It is important for us to work with these communities (and beyond) and share personal stories from and with the people that actively had or are currently experiencing them. Broadly speaking, any production we mount will be grounded in lived experience.

Our members find that too often these minorities and stories that aren't explicitly commercial are considered "risks," so we opt to #CreateDangerously
