Motionhouse – Hidden

Motionhouse – Hidden

Jaw-dropping dance-circus

Internationally renowned dance-circus company Motionhouse returns to the Cornwall Playhouse, with its brand-new production Hidden.

Hidden explores how, in an increasingly divided world, light can come out of darkness in times of crisis.

At times narrative, and at others abstract, Hidden is a powerful blend of artforms. At the cutting edge of live performance and digital integration, gravity-defying choreography, a pulsing soundscape and a shape-shifting set are drawn together by digital projections into a living film. In this shadowy world, can hidden voices ultimately push through to the light?

Building on the successes of previous productions including 2021’s spectacular hit show, Nobody, Hidden further develops the company’s unique dance-circus language, absorbing elements from other physical forms and encompassing them into a distinctive and visceral movement language, where breathtaking dance melts effortlessly into thrilling circus feats.

A spectacular and unforgettable production.

Hidden is co-commissioned by FABRIC, Birmingham Hippodrome and Warwick Arts Centre. Created with support from the John Ellerman Foundation and the UK’s innovation agency, Innovate UK. Motionhouse is supported using public funding by Arts Council England and is a Birmingham Hippodrome Associate Company.
