Hidden
Jaw-dropping dance-circus
-Internationally renowned dance-circus company Motionhouse returns to Guildford, with its brand-new production Hidden, which will premiere in the UK in February 2025.
A continuation of artistic director Kevin Finnan’s exploration of his distinctive dance-circus form, Hidden will examine the human experience in the context of some of our shared challenges in an increasingly divided world.
Seven performers delve into the world of Hidden, negotiating threats and obstacles to uncover hidden voices and push through to the light.At times narrative, and at others abstract, Hidden is a powerful integration of artforms. A pulsing, shifting, and ever-present soundscape transforms and drives the story forward as sound and raw physical movement work together.
At the cutting edge of live performance and digital integration, the sound environment, movement and dynamic set are visually drawn together by digital projections to create a shadowy and enigmatic world on stage. Changing in the blink of an eye, this living film evokes the real-world experience of constant media presence.
Building on the success of Nobody, in Hidden, Finnan 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.
