Description

STRUT is a night time performance and projection parade shining the light on 5 talented dancers with a connection to Inverclyde whose personal choreographies reflect the celebratory energy of the area.

These talented movers and shakers were selected from a wide-ranging Open Call, with the help of a community panel. The rotating one-performer parade weave its way around locations in Greenock and Port Glasgow with spectators invited to watch from the pavement, wave from their windows or follow the event and dance along.
