No Sugar No Milk by TS Crew – FrI 3 July
Hong Kong parkour crew TS Crew sold out on their last visit to us with their amazing No Dragon No Lion. Now they’re back with their latest Edinburgh Fringe sellout show No Sugar No Milk. Based in the chaos of an Hong Kong diner expect high energy acrobatics, parkour, martial arts, beatboxing, circus antics and a lot of laughs! A great show to wrap up our indoor Spring/Summer season and one not to miss! Tickets are selling well and advise booking ahead. Tickets from £8. They are also running a workshop on 1 July for advanced level dancers to incorporate martial arts into choreography – great opportunity to gain new skills.

RIDE School Tour – 6-10 July
We are partnering with the amazing Zoielogic Dance Theatre to take their high energy RIDE performance on tour to local BCP schools. Zoielogic Dance Theatre has a two decade long record for creating dance which is engaging and fun. RIDE is a twenty minute performance in which the paths of three very different men collide on their journey in a car with a mind of its own. It’s Chitty Chitty Bang Bang with an ‘80s vibe, an athletic physicality and daring stunts, and features a real car which rotates and pivots to provide the performance playground. Watch the trailer
The tour starts on Monday 6 July at Oak Academy and finishing at Twynham School on Friday 10 July.
