The Remix is an inclusive youth performance company open to young people age 12-17, both disabled and non-disabled, from across Dorset. The Premix is a similar group set up for 5-11 year olds. More recently we have established a new group called The Originals for young adults aged 18-25.

The Remix members include young people with physical and sensory impairments, young people with learning difficulties and non-disabled young people, all with a love of performance and the willingness to stretch themselves and have fun.

Since the company began in 2007, The Remix has worked with internationally renowned companies including Akademi Dance Company, Joli Vyann Dance Company, Cirque Bijou and StopGap Dance Company. They have performed in theatres and spaces all across the South West and in London.

The Remix groups usually meet once a month and for extended bespoke workshops during the schools holidays. The team includes qualified care staff who are on hand to assist at all residencies and workshops.

ASCape is a charity supporting young Autistic people (plus those with social anxiety) and their families in West Dorset. We have a number of different support groups and activities for families, young people aged 0-25 and parents/carers.
