More than 400 people joined in with the community dance project Let’s Play THURROCK! over the summer 2025, thanks to a partnership between Applause and Casson & Friends.
ARCADE – an interactive performance with dance ‘games’ encouraged playful participation and helped connect Thurrock residents aged 3-94 to get active in their local area.
The community dance project was one of 11 co-commissions as part of Creative Estuary, aimed at turning the Thames Estuary into a world-renowned cultural hub. The project was supported by Start Thurrock and commissioned by Creative Estuary and Applause Rural Touring.
Deputy Director at Applause, Sally Lampitt said: “What stands out about the work Tim and Casson & Friends make is that it’s always centered around people. At the heart it’s always playful, imaginative and it just brings joy”.
