Ultralight Beam was created in response to the Abortion Law amendments that took place across the USA in 2019. Capturing the reactions of our dancers, we developed a piece which portrayed the conflict between those in power and the women who had lost the right to make decisions concerning their own bodies. The piece was first performed at ‘StraightUP ‘19’ at the Brighton Dome Theatre in Brighton and had a huge impact on the audience. It was also selected to be part of the South East Regional Showcase for U-Dance 2020 and was performed alongside other youth dance companies at The Brook Theatre in Chatham.
