PRIME: We Are is a contemporary dance show by PRIME at DB 1 during Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2026. Dance Base's in-house company for dancers over 60, PRIME explores the ways we can support each other to keep going, fighting and overcoming obstacles — and also when we choose to surrender and accept. We Are premieres new work from recently appointed Artistic Director Kally Lloyd-Jones and guest choreographer Malcolm Sutherland. The show runs 60 minutes, is suitable for ages 8 and over, and tickets start from £8.50.
