Norwich Moves Norwich Moves

From ballet and breakdance to physical theatre and everything in between, Norwich Theatre is celebrating all things movement based and encourages you to try something you might not have seen before.

Shows under its new Norwich Moves branding provide an opportunity to experience storytelling in a way where words are not the focus. They have been selected to feature world-class and celebrated choreographers, dancers and artists. During April, Norwich Theatre Royal will welcome Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty (4 – 8 Apr). You will enter a wondrous world of magical fairies and vampires, where the timeless tale of good vs evil is turned upsidedown, creating a supernatural love story that even the passage of time itself cannot hinder.

At Norwich Theatre Playhouse, check out Joss Arnott's Tin Man (14 Apr - 16 Apr) and Rosie Kay's award-winning show, 5 Soldiers (20 – 22 April). Tin Man is a visually stunning dance production for families and children aged 7+ and explores a re-imagined story seen through the rusty eyes of the Tin Man. Rosie Kay's 5 Soldiers is a thrilling and humane portrait of army life, stories of four men and one woman serving on the front line. Don't miss the post-show discussion to explore the themes in more depth.

Norwich Theatre is particularly proud and excited to host the world's biggest hiphop dance festival at Norwich Theatre Royal on 27 May. Breakin' Convention is a complete takeover of the building, with jaw-dropping performances, DJs, graffiti artists and freestyle sessions. It's not just about shows. If you want to get moving, why not try some of Norwich Theatre's amazing takepart opportunities. On offer is the popular Ballet for Over 50s (5 May – 14 Jul) and Dance Lab for Over 50s (15 May – 24 Jul), a session for those looking to gain new dance and movement skills.
