Internationally renowned dance-circus company Motionhouse returns to Birmingham Hippodrome, with its brand-new production Hidden.

Thought-provoking and poignant, Hidden explores how, in an increasingly divided world, light can come out of darkness in times of crisis.

At the cutting edge of live performance and digital integration, Hidden is a powerful blend of artforms.

Gravity-defying choreography, an emotive soundscape and a shape-shifting set combine with groundbreaking projections to create an immersive world on stage.

The fearless performers throw, catch and lift each other with immense precision, thrilling audiences with heart-in-the-mouth moments in this action-packed new production.

Building on the successes of previous shows, including 2021’s major hit, Nobody, the production further develops Motionhouse’s distinctive and visceral dance-circus language, where breath-taking dance melts effortlessly into thrilling circus feats. A spectacular and unforgettable production.

This performance is part of THIS IS DANCE an international season of dance in  Birmingham presented in partnership with FABRIC, Birmingham Hippodrome, Birmingham Rep, Fierce Festival, Midlands Arts Centre and Sampad Arts, bringing exceptional dance from both across the globe and the local community.

Hidden is co-commissioned by Warwick Arts Centre, Birmingham Hippodrome and FABRIC. 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.
