Dance in the Dark

A captivating dance and music show with fun interaction for ages 3+ & families.

Come in your favourite PJs for a slumber party in a giant sleepover den and a night-time adventure into a playful world of imagination.

As darkness descends, lets giggle as we get ready for bed, play in the spooky shadows, listen to night-time sounds, and feel the blustery wind and drizzly rain on our faces in the storm.

We’ll meet friendly nocturnal creatures… some slithering slugs, most magical moths, and fantastical fireflies. Discover the magic of the dark as we whirl and twirl, catch a shooting star and learn how to be brave at bedtime.

Back on tour by popular demand, Dance in the Dark, from Sonrisa Arts is a dreamy multi-sensory feast, co-created with children and families. This inclusive and humorous show features contemporary dance, live music, immersive sound, scents, and audience interaction.

The 3.30pm performance will be a Relaxed Performance, designed to create a more welcoming and accessible theatre experience for anyone who may benefit from a more informal environment.

Relaxed Performance adjustments include:

• Lower-than-usual sound levels for music and sound effects throughout the show.
• Freedom to move around, come and go as needed, and make noise during the performance.
• Reduced audience capacity to create a more comfortable environment.
• A visual guide available to download, which you can access below.
• A 10-minute Touch Tour before the performance (must be booked in advance with the venue).
• A pre-show introduction in the foyer. As with all performances, the Stage Manager will introduce the show, and for this relaxed performance the cast will also join for a special “Meet the Cast” introduction.
