Description
You’ll be blown away!
You won’t want to sit down for this high-energy dance show that transforms the everyday bench into a stage for humour, honesty, and breathtaking physicality. In BENCHED, five fearless dancers push the limits of movement, exploring what it means to take space, share space, and sometimes fall right off the edge.
With playful choreography, bold athleticism, and a spark of mischievous fun, BENCHED invites audiences to laugh, reflect, and marvel at the sheer joy of bodies in motion. This is dance at its most daring, dynamic, and delightfully unexpected. Click here to watch the video.
