Autin Dance Theatre is proud to announce that we have officially been awarded charity status! 🎉
Established in 2013 by acclaimed French choreographer and Birmingham-based Artistic Director Johnny Autin, we are an innovative touring dance company with a mission to inspire, educate, and spark positive social change. Through multi-disciplinary arts activities, we engage communities in theatres, outdoors, and non-traditional spaces, offering extensive learning and engagement programmes. Our work draws on contemporary social issues, creating highly accessible performances such as A Posi+ive Life, Dystopia, Street Games, Out of the Deep Blueand Parade – The Giant Wheel. We’re excited for this new chapter and to continue bringing inclusive work and workshops to communities across the UK!
