Fish Out of Water

Fish Out of Water is a fresh, multi-disciplinary, participatory outdoor performance using hip hop dance, sculptures & live, responsive music to explore themes of belonging, otherness, displacement & migrancy with humour & charm.

Follow the dancers as they find themselves in a strange new place and help them overcome bizarre, colourful obstacles. By the end of the show, you can help them build a home somewhere new and show them that whatever challenges we face, we are stronger together.

This unique piece is truly interactive, responsive and accessible to the audience – each community brings their own elements to the production and every show is different.

Fish Out of Water is the latest touring performance from MCDC Michaela Cisarikova Dance Company, known for bold visuals and her signature hip hop and contemporary dance style. Co-commissioned by Applause and The Marlowe, with support of SELEP Ltd as a part of Catalyst For Culture and supported by Arts Council England.
