Scattered
A Meteor Shower of Unlikely Moments
Established in 1988, Motionhouse is one of the leading dance theatre companies in the UK. Our most recent theatre production Scattered has been touring since October 2009 and has visited venues throughout the UK, Europe and China.
Scattered has taken audiences by storm, with sell out shows and standing ovations and is available for international touring to traditional venues and outdoor festivals.
Performed on a giant curved floor like a snowboard half-pipe, Scattered explores our relationship with water in an ingenious collaboration with Logela Multimedia from the Basque region of Spain. The mix of magical film and daring dancing creates an extraordinary world in which the dancers move seamlessly in, on and through images of cascading waterfalls, rainstorms, arctic wastes and desert landscapes.
