Stick With Us //2026

Stick With Us brings together 30 dancers and eleven wooden dowels to explore what holds us together in uncertain times. Through movement that is playful, poetic and deeply felt, these young dancers transform simple objects into tools for connection, tension, support and expression — building towards a pulsing geometrical peak that gives shape to the feelings words alone cannot carry.
