Probe is about extending performance, creating new contexts for presenting contemporary dance and developing collaborations with exciting artists within and beyond contemporary dance.
Based in Brighton, Probe was founded in 2004 by Antonia Grove and Theo Clinkard who came together as dancers, Artistic Directors, curators and producers to commission work to perform as a duo. It was the brainchild of Antonia who was looking for a way to progress artistic ideas formed through years working as a dancer with different companies and choreographers and as a choreographer in her own right. After four years of successful production and touring, Theo has been furthering his career as a designer of theatre, opera and dance, whilst Antonia Grove has continued to develop projects for Probe as sole Artistic Director.
