A Global Perspective. A Contemporary Voice.

Founded in 1996, ACE Dance and Music is a national and international touring dance company.

Firmly rooted in our home city of Birmingham, we hold a global outlook and are recognised worldwide as leaders in Contemporary African and Caribbean Dance.

Our signature style is grounded in traditional Afro-fusion forms, reimagined and expressed through a distinctly contemporary lens. Drawing from rich African and Caribbean movement traditions, we transform heritage into bold, forward-facing performance that resonates across cultures and borders.

Over nearly three decades, the company has built a reputation for artistic excellence, innovation and cultural dialogue — creating work that speaks to both history and the evolving world around us.

OUR APPROACH

We champion collaboration and cultural exchange through shared choreographic practices and new technologies. Working with an international network of Artistic Associates, we create innovative performance set to original music and enhanced by digital and cross-disciplinary practice.
