Tin Man at Pavilion Dance South West

Joss Arnott Dance presents a magical new retelling of a classic story, seen through the rusty eyes of the Tin Man and his journey to finding his heart and happiness.
This beautiful new dance production for families with children aged 7+ explores a reimagined story of how this much-loved character would have coped against the Wicked Witch in the deep dark wood and discovers the new personalities he might have met along the way.
Told with brilliant humour and touching pathos, ‘Tin Man’ will resonate with children and adults alike with its charming storytelling, bold choreography, stunning costume and lighting and a newly commissioned score by award-winning composer Anna Appleby.
Supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England, the Royal Philharmonic Society with funding from the RPS Drummond Fund and PRS Foundation’s The Open Fund for Organisations.
Co-commissioned by DanceEast, Swindon Dance, Pavilion Dance South West and Kala Sangam. Supported by the University of Sheffield Enable US Project.
