MISSION STATMENT

Our work is submerged in theatricality, innovative set design and crafted with a cinematic approach telling stories through an intricate movement language.

Underpinning all of our work is the drive to increase and engage new audiences for dance, with a focus on males. Achieved through professional works for theatre and unconventional spaces, nationally acclaimed youth company FuzzyLogic, feeder company FuzzyVision and a highly successful outreach programme.

Zoielogic is delighted to be Associate Artists of The Point Theatre, Play Artists of Pavilion Dance South West and Associate Choreographer of Octagon Theatre and Take Art.

ZOIE GOLDING, ARTISTIC DIRECTORZoie Golding is an accomplished Artistic Director, producer and choreographer. Zoie is nationally recognised for her work with men and dance. In 2000 she founded FuzzyLogic Male Youth Dance Company and following its success she created ZoieLogic in 2012, the professional all male dance company who are successfully touring work across the UK.

Her work offers a multi-layered approach of engagement through professional, youth and educational strands and develops strong partnerships and audiences from the grass roots up. Her passion is taking dance to audiences and venues that may not have otherwise engaged with dance and challenging the perception of dance in the public eye.

Zoie Golding, Artistic Director

AT RISK WORK

Zoie Golding has extensive experience working with hard to reach and vulnerable young people in youth secure units, care homes, pupil referral units and prisons. ZoieLogic offer highly successful intensive projects built around the needs of those involved and their support networks, successfully taking groups through the creative process to performance.

It was obvious that the young people involved

“to each other and responding appropriately. I have been hugely impressed by the impact this project has had on those who participated and the developments they have made during this time.Dave WrightWest Berkshire Youth Offending Team
