HAPPENCHANCE is a promenade integrated dance, performance project for hospitals and hospices (but not exclusively – we have created our work so it can be engaging and enjoyable in a wide range of settings).
Initially devised for the University Hospitals of North Midlands, Artistic Director Rachael Lines created five new contemporary dance works, especially for the hospital environment and all who attend; in and outpatients, visitors and staff.
Performers travel between public spaces and corridors to wards, and specialist units – we can even venture outside on the hospital grounds. We have work suitable for Children’s wards, Renal Units (Kidney Dialysis), Chemotherapy, Stroke, General Wards and Outpatient waiting areas – in fact our work can be performed anywhere!
We have different work available for both indoor and outdoor settings. We tailor what we perform for the right environment, situation, hospital and patient need. It can include storytelling and live music.
We can also facilitate one-to-one and group activities for staff, visitors and patients.
