TODAY, Tuesday 24 March 2026
Cathy Waller Company You & Us
Venue: Theatre Royal
7.30pm
Through film and live dance, You & Us offers a powerful reflection on humanity - revealing stories that are usually kept out of sight and placing them centre stage. You & Us asks why we hide parts of ourselves to fit in, and what it might mean to be fully seen. A double bill of award-winning film and emotionally charged live dance performance channels extraordinary physical power against original pulsing soundtracks created by MOBO award winning Lewis Wright. The result is poetic and exhilarating, holding up a mirror to how we move through the world.
