Witness This

by Company Chameleon

Dance, Theatre

An image of a male performer doing a handstand on one hand with his legs bent facing the camera. He is wearing a yellow t-shirt and black trousers and there is a pillar in the background.

Witness This turns the spotlight on mental health in a powerful and moving portrayal of how loved ones’ cope, when mental health problems take hold of someone close.

Deeply personal, the piece tells the story of choreographer, Kevin Edward Turner, following his journey and struggle with Bipolar. The result is an unforgettable view of mental health through dance and movement; this is relevant and up-to-the-minute dance theatre.

‘Beautifully revealing, unforgettably good.’

Judith Mackrell, The Guardian
