Journeys Festival of Dance returns to East Sussex this September with three days of high-quality, outdoor dance performances in public spaces across Uckfield, Hailsham and Bexhill. Produced by local event producers 18 Hours, the festival brings together internationally acclaimed dance companies and inspiring local talent to celebrate movement, music and community.• Saturday 27 September, Hailsham High Street, 12pm & 1pm
The second day of the festival brings the O’Driscoll Collective to Hailsham town centre, performing ‘One%’. This piece combines the raw physicality of breakdance with emotionally charged storytelling. Through a powerful blend of movement and music, ‘One%’ explores shifting emotional states and the significant need for mental health awareness. The performance offers a dynamic and honest portrayal of intensity, connection, and vulnerability through breaking and hip hop theatre. Following their second performance, the duo will host a free workshop where audiences can explore and try out some of the dance movements from the show.
Be sure to catch the other performances during the festival including a vibrant Bollywood show from Showmi Dance at Bridge Cottage, Uckfield on Friday 26th Sept and the festival finale on Sunday 28th Sept with an Indian Khatak dance performance from the Sujata Banerjee Dance Co. on the De La Warr Pavilion Terrace in Bexhill.
