The Sticky Dance

Presented by Second Hand Dance
Sat 11 Oct 2025
Co-created by Rosie Heafford and Takeshi Matsumoto
Co-commissioned by The Southbank Centre and The Place, and South East Dance
 
For family audiences and children aged 3-5 years old
 
Three dancers' shimmy through the audience weaving a tapestry of sticky tape in this tactile dance performance for young children. They invite you to tape, stick and groove, to see and feel sound or to be still, watch and listen. Audiences are encouraged to explore freely, turn the rules upside down and create their own experience.
 
The Sticky Dance is an interactive, engaging and colourful performance installation for children and their families.
 
The Sticky Dance is open for 2 hours for each performance, with entrance slots available to book every 15 minutes. We recommend you spend approximately 45 – 60 minutes in the space, although you can choose to stay for longer or shorter. The first 2 slots have a lower capacity, for children who might prefer a gentler start.
 
Late comers and re-entry is permitted, however if the space is already full, we may ask you to wait.
