O NO!!

THU 3 MAR | Full £10 Conc £6 | 7.30pm | AGE 16 Plus

A psychedelic ride, and a wonky homage to the woman damned for destroying the Beatles, O No! borrows Yoko Ono’s art instructions to ask whether falling in love is always catastrophic.

A sell-out success and one of the most talked about shows of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2015.

Funny and surprising in equal measure this show from a multi-award winning theatre maker, is about reckless optimism, avant-garde art and what we might yet have to learn from the hippies.

Supported by Arts Council England, Ovalhouse, CPT, National Theatre Studio and Physical Fest Liverpool

“Fractious, hilarious and punctuated by undeniable beauty, Jamie Wood’s tribute to Yoko Ono is a thing of mischief and magic”

10th Anniversary

THU 28 APR | Full £10 Conc £6 | 7.30pm | AGE 13 Plus

mapdance celebrates its 10th anniversary with an enticingly varied set of exciting commissions of new works and reconstructions by renowned and upcoming international contemporary choreographers. The gratifyingly varied roster of artists includes Kevin Finan (Motionhouse), the wacky maverick Liz Aggiss, Israel Aloni and Lee Brummer (ilDance- Sweden).

The company will also restage Richard Alston’s vibrant, evergreen Roughcut (1990) as well as Abi (Lila Dance) Mortimer’s elegant, Leonardo-inspired Schemes, Dreams and Machines from mapdance’s 2015 tour. The University of Chichester’s MA touring company is an established group of dynamic young dancers recruited nationally and internationally. Their richly diverse repertoire offers audiences a refreshing mixture of gritty dance-theatre, wry humour, and intricate and questioning choreography.

Happy birthday, mapdance!
