Danshappening on the red line when the network for dance development in the Stockholm region celebrates Dance Day
To celebrate Dance Day, Dance on the red line arranges a mobile dance event on April 29, which starts at Liljeholmens galleria, on to Skärholmens torg, Vårby Gård with a finish in Hallunda. Performance Company ReAct! will meet up and guide the audience along the way. During the dance trip with the metro, travelers will have to meet different kinds of dance with examples such as jazz, indian, afrobeat, contemporary and street.
The audience can go all the way or choose to stop at the different places on their own. The dance trip is free but a valid SL ticket is required.

Both professional actors such as ReAct !, and Jelnek participate. Dancers from the Fryshuset, DOCH, the Stockholm Cultural School, the Dansprogrammet, DANSA / SNACKA, Botkyrka Kulturskola, Saraswathy Kalakendra – Usha Balasundaram, the Indian Dance Academy, the Mosaic Theater, Empire Dancers from the Association Expose and Stockholm’s Aesthetic Gymnasium are participating.
ABOUT THE ARRANGERS
