1. The Teds
Choreography: Kim Noble
Dancers: All MYDC and MCDC members
Watch out, The Teds are in town & they're ready to SHAKE, RATTLE and ROLL with the punches…’‘The Teds’ is a dance theatre performance drawing inspiration from the 1950s gangs and their rebellious attitude of Rock and Roll.
Watch as this sharply dressed, suited and booted, gang of youths kick off a teenage revolution! Rebelling out of the hard times and transforming into rock icons these gangs are whipping up a frenzy and hysteria from their adoring fans!....absolutely no autographs please!

4. The Way our Story Goes
Choreography: Sam Amos
Dancers: MYDC seniors, juniors and intermediate groups
Sam Amos utilises MYDC’s talent in The Way Our Story Goes, a piece that combines a highly physical and expressive movement style with the company’s passion and spontaneity.
The Way Our Story Goes uses dance as a means to explore individuality, and examine what we can misinterpret or fail to understand about one another - the piece is inspired by the idea that every side to a story is worth listening too.
The Way Our Story Goes is also underpinned by aims to improve the mental wellbeing in young people as we continue to transition out of lockdown, and provide an environment for people to come together, move, and work creatively towards a common goal.

5. Where do we go from here
Choreography: Jack Philp
Dancers: MYDC Seniors
The work is fuelled by the spirit of connection and thinking about what that means for us in todays world. Our practice in the studio was informed by technology and how we connect through data, as well as reflecting over the irreplaceable energy of touch and shared spaces. Here, in this work, we meet, reconnect and dance together again.
