A thrilling show exploring how we choose to live our lives – having a dream, giving it up, trying again – but above all, it’s a story about friendship. Mixing dance, theatre and storytelling with a good dose of humour, the performance features classic songs like Somewhere Over the Rainbow, When you Wish Upon a Star and What a Wonderful World.

“a beguiling joy”
The Guardian ★★★★

“beautifully constructed show: laugh out loud, serious, profoundly silly, and a joy from start to finish”
★★★★ THE SKINNY

Plan B for Utopia is a playful dance theatre work by Dundee-based company Joan Clevillé Dance. Charismatic performers Solène Weinachter (Scottish Dance Theatre, Gecko) and John Kendall (balletLORENT) explore the notion of utopia and the role that imagination and creativity can play as a driving force for change in our personal and collective lives.
