About
Turn is an annual platform for North West dancers and dance-makers — an opportunity to engage with new dance in Manchester. After a 6-year hiatus, this tenth edition presents ten short works in three spaces at Contact — get a feel for it with 2017’s programme + gallery of images. NB Friday’s public platform is followed by an artist day for participants only.
