KIZLAR is a celebration of what it means to be female. Combining Turkish folk dance with stunning athletic movement, this captivating show presents different images of femininity, from the tender to the powerful.
Subverting traditionally male Turkish folk dances with an all-female company, KIZLAR brings unified strength and a strong yet sensual energy to the stage.
This highly visual spectacle is accompanied by a powerful, rhythmic soundtrack blending Eastern sounds with modern beats.
'Tanc presents different images of femininity, and the company present a united energy, a solid sisterhood. Who runs the world? Girls’ - The Guardian
“Powerful, strong, sensual and soft. Beautiful dancers. Awesome, awesome soundtrack and slick costumes that complemented every move. Just perfect.” - Audience member, Wildness Festival 2023
‘KIZLAR is a defiant display of feminism with powerful movements, interspersed with tenderness as the dancers embrace’ Brighton and Hove News
Presented in partnership with the Rural Touring Dance Initiative
