Roll up! Roll up! Welcome to the Animatorium.

Animatorium premiered at Green Man festival in 2016, and will now be popping up in weird and wonderful spaces.

Created by Resident Choreographer Caroline Finn, who is known for her darkly comic and quirky style, Animatorium sees National Dance Company Wales’ troupe of award-winning dancers brought to life, animated and controlled by their charming yet sinister Master… Until the uprising.

Reviews

“The choreography employed to show the puppeteer controlling his minions is fluid and flowing...spinning the dancers by their heads, manipulating them like baker's dough.” 

- Steve Stratford Reviews  

“This dance was truly enchanting and I felt as though I was in some form of a trance just watching.”
