A multi-sensory dance performance is set to make a splash in Dumbarton next month.

Bodies of Water, presented by BOW Collective, will take place at The Phoenix on Saturday, October 11.

The show, described by reviewers as “evocative, primal, and really beautiful”, weaves together dance, music and visual art to explore our relationship with water.
