Portals (An Immersive Dance Odyssey)

Portals is an immersive dance adventure for all ages that drops you into strange and spectacular worlds where the rules don’t quite work. 

Gravity gets funky, time hiccups, and bodies move in ways usually reserved for dreams. Guided by headsets and a glitchy digital assistant, you’re led through the chaos by a troupe of seasoned world-hoppers. 

Follow their lead, embrace the weird, and discover a space where curiosity, movement, and playful exploration are not just allowed, but encouraged!

The performance is FREE but booking is recommended. 

Portals is supported by South East Dance as part of our Fringe Roots programme and presented in partnership with Brighton Fringe.

Choreographer: Anna Des Clayes

Creative Assistant: Eva Escrich Gonzalez

Dancers: Julian Howell, Lisa Sang, Anna Szmajda, Philip Willett, Anna Des Clayes and Eva Escrich Gonzalez
