Lucy Bennett OD

(She/They)

Co-Artistic Director, Stopgap

Lucy Bennett OD

Immersed in Stopgap’s work since 2003, Lucy has learnt to blend and expand the dynamic interaction of distinctly different dancers. Working as a choreographer within a company of markedly diverse dancers has allowed Lucy to develop, define and encapsulate her love for expressing human stories through dance.

Lucy became the Artistic Director of Stopgap in 2012 and has since collaborated with the artistic team to create several original dance theatre productions for national and international touring. Alongside Stopgap colleagues, she has developed the company’s creative learning programme and has supported Stopgap to become world renowned for inclusive choreographic and teaching practice, leading residencies throughout the UK, Asia, Europe, and Scandinavia.

Lucy Bennett
Co-direttrice artistica, Stopgap Dance Company

Immersa nel lavoro di Stopgap dal 2003, Lucy ha imparato a fondere ed espandere l’interazione dinamica di danzatori distintamente diversi. Il lavoro come coreografa all’interno di una compagnia di danzatori molto diversi tra loro ha permesso a Lucy di sviluppare, definire e concretizzare il suo amore per l’espressione delle storie umane attraverso la danza.

Lucy è diventata direttrice artistica di Stopgap nel 2012 e da allora ha collaborato con il team artistico per creare diverse produzioni originali di teatro danza per tournée nazionali e internazionali. Insieme ai colleghi di Stopgap, ha sviluppato il programma di apprendimento creativo della compagnia e ha sostenuto Stopgap nel diventare famosa in tutto il mondo per la pratica coreografica ed educativa inclusiva, guidando residenze in tutto il Regno Unito, in Asia, Europa e Scandinavia.
