Men & Girls Dance is a dance performance by Fevered Sleep celebrating adults' and children's right to share, play and dance together.
Men & Girls Dance brings together two very different groups of performers: men who dance professionally and girls from Barrow-in-Furness who dance for fun.
At times playful, at times provocative, Men & Girls Dance celebrates the rights of adults and children to be together, to play together and to dance together. It’s a joyful celebration of tenderness, empathy, and love.
There will be a relaxed performance for M&GD on the Sunday matinee show.
Men & Girls Dance is brave and exquisitely beautiful, an utter delight: sometimes comic, often tender and frequently exuberant

“In a time of ever-increasing suspicion and abuse a theatrical undertaking such as this is challenging taboos. Fevered Sleep’s quietly radical, hour-long effort wears its importance with a creditable lightness and grace.”
