TOUCH
Contemporary works in dance, film & physical theatre inspired by TOUCH.
“Expect beautiful contact work, dangerous jaw dropping stunts, soulful stories, poignant films and quirky incidents.”
Returning to Exeter, the Merge Platform, celebrates the high quality artistry of smaller contemporary companies, bringing them all together in one place.
“Expect the unexpected, find something new, revel in what it is to be TOUCHED”
In the aptly named new home, The New Theatre will provide an exciting new space for film and live performance.
“Expect looming images, fast flying, movement so close you could touch it and dramatic set designs”
