Lucy Dyson

Choreographer Assistant Choreographer

(She/her). I am a Yorkshire based Choreographer, interested in musical theatre and passionate about storytelling and narrative-based movement. I am a creative that strives for a clear movement vocabulary within my work, with a focus on musicality, character building, narrative and immersion. I am keen to ensure that my work is accessible and inclusive to everybody.

I have worked across the country as a Dancer, Teacher and Choreographer. I have taught for many companies/schools including Northern Ballet, Phoenix Dance Theatre, CAPA College, Stagecoach Performing Arts and Pauline Quirke Academy. I have taught toddlers, teenagers, older adults, adults with Parkinson's disease, and young people with learning difficulties.
