This year Gateway Youth will be working with choreographer and teacher Jenny Chrisp on a piece that they will create together and take to perform at the world renowned Sadler’s Wells. This is all made possible by the ‘Making Moves’ project. Which is a choreography and performance project for schools and youth groups across England, run by Sadler’s Wells and supported by Barclays. Connecting young people with the ideas of some of the world’s most exciting choreographers, Making Moves aims to raise the profile of dance being created in school and youth settings and offers a chance to perform on one of Sadler’s Wells stages.
