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 the music & sound effects in the show
  • Permission to come and go during the show, wriggle and make noise
  • Lower audience capacity
  • 10 minute Touch Tour (pre-booked with venue)
  • Introduction in the foyer – for every show this is done by the stage manager but for relaxed shows we will also bring out the cast for a ‘meet the cast intro’
