Dance company in the region

The production will be at Newtown on Thursday and Friday before returning to the area in May to appear at Theatre Severn in Shrewsbury on May 6 and 6.

The recently appointed Artistic Director, Fearghus Ó Conchúir, said: "As part our Awakening tour, we’re bringing a variety of work to our audiences. This variety includes the intricate and indulgent world of Revellers’ Mass, a new work by our

resident choreographer, Caroline Finn; the affecting magic of appearance and disappearance in Fernando Melo’s Afterimage; the moving simplicity of Lee Johnston’s They Seek to Find the Happiness They Seem, with its echoes of Astaire and Rogers, and the sleek precision of Marcos Morau’s award-winning Tundra.

“This variety of work shows the versatility of the company, and its ability to offer audiences diverse perspectives on the world. These are beautiful works that invite us to see something different and we’re looking forward to sharing that beautiful difference with

audiences that come to see the work and with the people who join in our related workshops and creative engagement activities. "

Last year was an exceptionally busy year for the company with a UK-wide tour, performances in Austria and Germany, a collaboration tour with Music Theatre Wales, an autumn tour of Wales and a collaboration with Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama as well as community-based performances and workshops around the country.

Awakening is made up of four dance pieces all very different.
