How far would you go for a better life?
about the production
Driven by the desire for a brighter future, three equally desperate people unknowingly take the biggest gamble of their lives. Their story is one of strength in the face of adversity. Inspired by true accounts of modern slavery, and told through a dynamic fusion of dance, theatre, aerial acrobatics, music and projection, JUSTICE IN MOTION presents a compelling and thought-provoking tale of dreams and broken promises, of hope, optimism and resilience in the face of harrowing circumstances.
about the artist
We make theatre. A powerful, thought-provoking, visual type of theatre. We tell stories about people who are victims of social injustice. Our shows are exciting and engaging. They mix dance, theatre, parkour, aerial acrobatics, film and music. They captivate and draw you in as we shine a light into some of the dark places you can’t, normally, see.
