Dance Exposed is a series of short dance works for public spaces.

Inspired by the need to increase the profile of dance amongst a wider audience, Dance Exposed involves the commission of two dance pieces. These adaptable performances can take place in public streets, shopping centres, parks and other public spaces.

Dance Exposed 2011 was principally funded by the National Lottery through the Arts Council of Northern Ireland. The programme premiered at the Ulster Bank Belfast Festival at Queen’s in the Ulster Museum October 2011.
