Engaging, innovating, connecting and surprising! Back to Ours brings outstanding arts and cultural experiences right to people’s doorsteps in neighbourhoods across Hull. Using the city’s high streets, schools, community centres, clubs, shopping centres, pubs and more, we support the commissioning, production, creation and touring of new, original and inspirational work. We engage local people as audiences, participants, creators and commissioners, and bring the arts to life in familiar settings as they’ve never been seen before.
We’re all about engaging new audiences in the arts, so we’re interested in work that captures, resonates, asks questions, excites and/or gives people a good night out. We’re not genre-specific within dance-if it engages and excites, we’re here for it and always open to chat about new ideas.
In the past, we've programmed Avant Garde Dance’s Fagin’s Twist as part of a half-term festival and worked with a local dance school in our site-specific punk pop circus opera Back to Bransholme. We also run weekly movement classes in our Bransholme Chat Shop. Overall we’re about giving opportunities to see and participate in exciting work and supporting local artists.
