'Dancing Bear'

Feb-April 2018

Review by Jo Flynn of North West End

"there are moments in Dancing Bear that will make you cry and there are moments that will make you cry out laughing" ★★★★★

Jamie Fletcher & Company

Full of compassion, honesty and humour, Dancing Bear explores the struggle between faith, sexuality and gender identity.

 

A multi-talented cast, including Divina De Campo (BBC’s All Together Now, The Voice), deftly flip between catchy pop tunes and dramatic storytelling to create a feast for the heart and head.

 

Dancing Bear is a dizzying cabaret of contradictions: glamorous and unflinching, hilarious and heart-breaking, deeply personal and uplifting.

 

Part of Queer Contact Festival 2018, Contact Theatre’s 10th annual festival celebrating LGBT+ arts and culture in Greater Manchester.
