Artistic Director's Welcome...
"Welcome to the sixth edition of the Echo Echo Festival of Dance and Movement!
Each year we try to keep a sense of continuity and development as well as having new things in the programme. This year we have built the festival around overlapping artistic residencies and collaborations with other arts and educational organisations in Derry from the 5th November. This is all linked together with the usual rich programme of performances, classes and special events from the 8th November. For the first time, we are also taking elements of the festival to Belfast.
These are uncertain times, not just for the arts, and I am convinced that the qualities of good artistic practice are still those that we need in order to prosper socially, psychologically and emotionally. With this festival we propose movement is an essential aspect of human communication and creativity and again we invite you to join us to move and be moved."
