Billed as a magic journey through the night, What the Moon Saw is a re-imagining of a classic Hans Christian Andersen tale. It tells of young Jack, who is able to overcome his fears with the help of his friend, the moon.


Together they take their audience, young and old(er), on a journey of adventure, where among other marvels they meet a dragon unable to breathe fire in China and a chimney sweep that dances on the rooftops of London.


What The Moon Saw TRAILER from 2Faced Dance Company on Vimeo.


This family-friendly show is performed by one of the most exciting and versatile small companies around: 2Faced Dance. Its four performers will blend dance with circus arts to create an original, feel-good show just right for the Christmas period.

What the Moon Saw has a specially commissioned score from Angus Macrae, and dramaturgy by none other than Elle While, director of the eye-filling production of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the NIght-Time.


Even more exciting for younger family members, Tamsin Fitzgerald, Artistic Director of 2Faced Dance, asks that they come dressed in their pyjamas and join in this truly immersive performance. As Ms Fitzgerald puts it: 'Fidgeting, cheering and clapping - it will all be allowed during What the Moon Saw!'


Definitely one to include in your family's Christmas planning!


Note: There’s an accompanying What the Moon Saw dance workshop run by the company on Thursday, 21st December, at 14:30, which families can attend either after the 13:00 show or before the 16:30 show. Tickets: £4 or £12 for four participants


Age Recommendation: 3+
