Doorstep Duets 2025

Tuesday 22 July: performances at:

  • 10am
  • 11am
  • 2pm

We are very excited to confirm that Doorstep Duets, presented by Matthew Bourne’s New Adventures, will be returning for a fourth year to ÄûÃʵ¼°¹ Libraries and communities in July, bringing the joy and wonder of dance.

This year’s performance, My Feet Don’t Quite Touch the Floor, has been created by choreographer Shelby Williams.

Have you ever let your mind wander? Lost in a daydream, what did you wonder? This  imaginative story is inspired by the experiences of two legendary dancers at the beginning of their own dance journeys. It was their ability to seek their own paths and let their minds wander that inspired their extraordinary careers.

When we embrace wonder, we unleash possibility and creativity. What colour is your imagination?

If you have never seen a dance show before, this could be the perfect opportunity. The performance is free, just 20 minutes long and you don’t need to book, just turn up.

We look forward to seeing you at the performance!

For performances at other libraries and venues please see Performance dates, times and venues.
