World-renowned dance-circus company coming to Palace Theatre

Posted onPosted on 9th Sep

Motionhouse, a dance-circus company, is bringing three pieces to Mansfield Palace Theatre on Tuesday, 15th October with Three – a triple-bill of powerful pieces.

The show promises to combine strength and elegance. It was created and directed by Kevin Finnan, whose credits include the Paralympics ceremony for London 2012.

Three is all about human connections.

In Knot, two male dancers explore the vulnerabilities and power of male relationships.

In Gravity, a sense of isolation underlies the haunting choreography as two performers explore the loneliness of space.

Following an interval, the triple bill concludes with the gravity-defying choreography of Rescue. Adapted from its hit full length production, Nobody, Rescue sees the full company move together in a symphony of strength, support and tenderness.

The theatre is offering ‘tickets for a tenner’ for the show when people use the code ‘somethingnew’ online at mansfieldpalace.co.uk or at the Box Office in person or on the phone at 01623 463133.

A company spokesperson said: “In everything we do we want to engage with people from all cultures and identities, and of all ages, including people who are underrepresented in the world of dance, circus and outdoor arts.

“This includes but is not limited to those from working class and ethnically diverse backgrounds, or who experience racism, people who are neurodivergent, people who are disabled and people from the LGBTQIA+ community. Inspiring the next generation of children and young people from all backgrounds across the UK has been part of our ethos since the beginning. We want to play our part in creating a better society, now, and for future generations.”
