WeCameToDance is, simply put, a blast.After sold out workshops with rave reviews in New York City, we hope you will join WeCameToDance by Food Tank next at the 2021 Edinburgh Festival Fringe in Scotland.During the performance you will interact with aliens from a real exoplanet (they call it "Hanyana") that we have reimagined through conversations with NASA. The performers will sing in their own language created by famed linguist David Peterson, who developed Valerian for HBO's "Game of Thrones." Alongside the cast, you will groove to music created by Grammy-nominated Ghanaian artist Rocky Dawuni and participate in synchronized dance designed by Mary Page Nance of Broadway's "Finding Neverland" and "The Great Comet" and choreographer Ashley Jack of Edinburgh's House of Jack Studio. It is an ethereal, truly otherworldly experience that builds layered rhythms over spoken word poetry performed by an all-Scottish cast.Our musical tells the story of extra-terrestrial life that arrives on Earth to warn its inhabitants of a climate crisis that their own planet has experienced. While guiding you in a fully immersed experience through rhythms, dance, and song, the characters relay a call to action and convey the tragedy of a changing climate, yet a sense of hope percolates through each and every motion, movement, and note."Impact-driven, non-profit theatre is ready to be revitalized. As participants sing and dance alongside the cast, WeCameToDance proposes a new model of theatre that embraces vulnerability." –The Scotsman"A Fringe musical about the climate crisis and creating joy is more urgent than ever especially with the UN Climate Talks coming to Glasgow this Fall. "WeCameToDance" really tackles both these urgent needs — our desire to renew social connection and the urgency of the plight of the planet." -BBC Scotland.
