In Time
First made: 2024
At the heart of In Time stands a tree, the centrepiece of an immersive, in-the-round performance. With live original music and playful choreography, two dancers chase feathers on the wind, leap through fallen leaves, and wait in wonder for spring.
This enchanting show invites young audiences and their adults into a world of rhythm, nature, and imagination. Children are encouraged to notice, explore, and move—with no pressure to sit still or stay silent. The performance gently guides the audience around the space and ends with an invitation to step into the set and play.
Created for outdoor and unconventional spaces, In Time brings people together through dance, music, and joyful discovery. It’s a poetic and playful celebration of the natural world and our place within it.
