It has a touring company, offering one-week residencies and touring issue-based work to schools, community and venues nationally and internationally; and a community dance team working at grassroots level.

ID:me takes a brave new approach to issues of identity and diversity and what it means to inhabit and share our world today. Going straight to the heart of the debate, Ludus explore our understanding of community and challenge our sense of belonging by asking:-
Who are we? Where do we come from? What would it be like to walk in someone else's shoes? Why should we be nice to one another?
