Shuffle is a Scratch Night event for Street Dance artists in Scotland and offers performing artists the opportunity to present a work in progress in an informal and relaxed environment, and get feedback from the audience.
The event is curated by THREE60 directors Divine Tasinda & Kemono L.Riot and producer MC Laffitte and the performing acts are:
Rudy King Bantu - ‘King Bantu’
TMRW crew - ‘The Needle and the Thread’
Viv Latifa - ‘Blue Star’
Heavy Smokers crew - ‘The Way, The truth, The light’
The event will take place on Thursday 2nd May 2024, 7pm-9pm here at Platform. The event is supported by Platform, The Work Room, Dance Base and Creative Scotland.
POC artists:
THREE60 recognise the capitalisation from black cultures happening in the entertainment industry that does not yet benefit street dance artists at a more local level. The selection of performing acts was based on a strategic development to increase fluid access within the art sector for those dancers that experience barriers and biases in the industry. The selection process has ensured that at least three of the programmed acts have performers who identify as people of colour.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with producer MC Laffitte at mclproducing@gmail.com
