Nancy Roberts

Producer

Nancy holds more than 10 years of project management and production experience across independent, commercial and community dance. Driven by an interest in the ethics of production, Nancy occupies a hybrid practice (producer-facilitator- advocate) that is concerned with the relational potentials of dancing to problematise and undo fixed versions of ourselves. Nancy’s portfolio to date incorporates dance, live art and work in mental health and social health care settings. Nancy is currently programme producer at Siobhan Davies Dance, Executive Producer for Yewande 103 and works on a breadth of freelance dance projects.
