Dance Consortium presents

The 7 Fingers – Passagers (2021)

21 September - 12 October

UK Tour Autumn 2021

‘After one cancellation, two postponements and 14 months of empty theatres, I am delighted (and v excited!) on behalf of Dance Consortium members to be announcing our next tour by one of the world’s leading performance companies… This is the first time that the Dance Consortium members have presented The 7 Fingers Company from Québec and I can think of no better way of welcoming international artists back onto our stages than with their wonderful show Passagers – a beautiful homage to travel, love and the power of storytelling.’ Co-chair of Dance Consortium, Stephen Crocker

Coming out of Canada, the home of modern circus, The 7 Fingers (Les 7 Doigts de la Main) are one of the world’s most exciting and inventive contemporary circus companies. Combining choreography and dance with physical theatre, dazzling acrobatic skills with multi-media and music this award-winning trail-blazing company thrills with creativity and deserves to be experienced live.

Featuring 8 incredibly talented performers with a kaleidoscope of skills, Passagers will take you on a jaw-dropping and unexpected journey celebrating connections and adventures. Performing death defying feats with giant poles, hoop tumbling and wire walking, this artistic collective seamlessly weaves in music, movement and storytelling to create a spectacular and beautiful show.
