RENOWNED DANCE-CIRCUS COMPANY MOTIONHOUSE TO THRILL AUDIENCES AT LOWRY WITH JAW-DROPPING NEW PRODUCTION

Internationally renowned dance-circus company Motionhouse is set to wow audiences with its latest breathtaking production, Hidden, at Lowry, Salford, for one night only on Friday 30 January 2026. 

The performance in Salford is part of a major UK and international tour - Hidden has been thrilling audiences across the UK and Europe since February 2025, and touring will continue into 2027. 

Hidden explores how, in an increasingly divided world, light can come out of darkness in times of crisis. 

Kevin Finnan, Artistic Director: “In the darkest moments we face, when our whole world seems to tilt on its axis, humanity can come together to help one other through challenging times. It seems to me that although this aspect of humanity is sometimes hidden, it is a fundamental component of our survival as a species.”

In Hidden, an extraordinary shape-shifting set integrates seamlessly with digital projections, instantly transforming the world on stage and creating a ‘living film'. Building on the success of previous productions, including 2021’s Nobody, the production further develops the company’s unique dance-circus language. 

Kevin Finnan continues “We are embracing the relationship between dance, digital and circus in a new way for this production, developing our movement language and exploring new innovations in our use of digital technology. Hidden feels quite different from what we’ve done before. I hope it is a really beautiful show for audiences.” 

Hidden is co-commissioned by FABRIC, Birmingham Hippodrome and Warwick Arts Centre. Created with support from the John Ellerman Foundation and the UK’s innovation agency, Innovate UK.
