Top U.K. choreographer Lea Anderson, founder of "The Cholmondeleys" and "The Featherstonehaughs" will be presenting the fruits of her 9 month long immersion in the world of circus arts through an ensemble performance created using the talents of the 19 students of the 2003 graduating class of our BA(Hons)Theatre Practice - Circus Degree course*.

Through a unique "Artist in Residence" experience, made possible through a grant from The Leverhulme Trust, Lea has been dissecting the idea of the circus "number" and the possibilities that are offered once it is taken apart, scrambled up and put back together again.

The public for this performance will be expected to stand or move in order to view the performance from different angles. A space will be provided for those with limited mobility, on first-come-first-served basis, please inform the Box Office at the time of booking.

*The BA is run in association with the Central School of Speech and Drama and validated by the OUVS
