Lungs of Our City: 3 male performers inhabit a futuristic space where wanderers of a desolate world come together to breathe in our polluted cities. In this emotional, athletic and timely work that explores our hopes and fears for the future, witness a world that questions what happens if we come together, reverse the top-down dynamic and change our vision of the future. After the piece finishes  we’ll be encouraging each individual to make wishes for their future or the future of our planet. Take a moment individually or collectively to focus your intention and then write your wish onto one of our leaves and hang it off our wishing tree, sending them out into the universe.

Last Orders: by Sean Moss, commissioned by 2Faced Dance Company as part of their Multi Story Festival in 2020. Let’s start a revolution. Down the pub. Four guys meet in the local. They could not be more different. But they do have one thing in common…Thrown together and forced to confront their differences, Last Orders explores the vulnerability beneath male bravado. With vats of physicality, barrels of humour and a pounding soundtrack, join us down the local as we explore a future where our differences stop dividing us and, instead, we unite over common ground.Escape from the everyday, same-old-same-old; 2Faced Dance present this fun and energetic show in unexpected locations. This is more than just your regular trip to the pub.

Where All Paths Lead: Through the company’s distinctive physicality, driven choreography, touches of parkour and complex partner work, 7 male dancers embrace the powerful possibilities of different journeys as they navigate their way across a series of pathways. Played out amongst a sculptural and moveable set by designer Carl Davies, Fitzgerald brings together a whirlwind of athletic choreography through an achingly beautiful, cinematic lens. With music by Jos Dow, Simon Keep and Cameron Morrell, accompanied by live drums.
