The can-can. With crisps. And cava.

Conjuring a joyous freedom, Bottoms’ five dancers seek refuge from the present-day world in fragments of a wild dance forged in the Industrial Revolution.

Bottoms is new work from the Total Theatre Award-winning Two Destination Language.

This performance will be followed by a post show talk.

Bottoms is part of Nottdance festival.
