Bringing together dance groups of D/deaf, disabled and non-disabled dancers from Lincolnshire and surrounding areas, Unify Festival will give dancers the chance to showcase their skills on a professional stage in front of a live audience.

Dancers taking part will have the opportunity to participate in an inclusive dance workshop on the day of the festival led by Charlotte Tomlinson, artistic director of SideKick Dance. SideKick’s adult group will also perform as a finale piece in the show.

In the lead up to the festival a new adult dance group specifically tailored for people aged 18+ with a learning disability, autism or both, will be set up at Lincoln Drill Hall.
