Motionhouse brought Hidden to the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre on 20th May 2025, so we met with other Network members at 7pm for a chat and a chance to meet Associate Director, Daniel Massarella.
Catching up with other members of the dance community as well as supporting our visiting colleagues sparks ideas, connection and joy.
Here's Lucy (aka The Dance Mama) with her daughter enjoying this breathtaking show!
