Echo Echo Festival of Dance and Movement 2013
The first edition of Echo Echo Festival of Dance and Movement was an outstanding success with performances, concerts and talks by artists from Northern Ireland, Ireland, Germany, Moldova, and US shown during a very busy 8-day programme.
The daily class programme proved to be very popular for both visiting and local artists and the general public.
It was so intriguing. I've never seen anything like these performances before and I couldn't take my eyes off the performers. Absolutely brilliant. Audience feedback 2013
