Charlotte Vincent

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Charlotte Vincent is a British choreographer and the artistic director of Vincent Dance Theatre.[1][2][3][4]

Vincent founded the Vincent Dance Theatre in Sheffield in 1994.[2][5] It is an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation for 2018–22, allocated grants of £249,999 in each of the four years,[6] and is an Associate Company of Brighton Dome.[5]

In an Observer review of the company's 21st-anniversary residency at Shoreditch Town Hall in 2015, Luke Jennings said: "Funny, fearless and flintily determined, Vincent inspires unshakable loyalty in her dancers, and is one of the most important feminist artists working in Britain today. Contemporary dance fans should beat a path to her door."[7]

In 2019 Vincent created her first installation piece, Virgin Territory a "multi-screen dance film installation" which "asks vital questions about responsibility as we witness children playing in an adult online world", in the Towner Art Gallery, Eastbourne.[8]
