Becoming Goth: Dance as Transformation
Sunday, 1 March, 2026
We summon goth with our bodies, our movements and our emotions. Like a ritual under a full moon, a room full of spooky kids invoke the spirit of goth itself. On this episode we'll discuss what cultural meaning dance is able to communicate, the welcoming environment goth dancefloors cultivate, and what you should expect for your first night out. Our guests this month are Yasmine of the band XandStacy, Tony and Hani!
