Return To Heaven

Multi award-winning Mark Bruce Company (Made in Heaven, Dracula, The Odyssey) returns to Tobacco Factory Theatres with a dark and captivating new production. Dance theatre at its most potent and ambitious.

Two explorers search the dark mysteries of the ancient world and enter a perilous land beyond time and death.

Hounded by scientists and supernatural forces, and trying desperately not to lose one another, they journey through lands of unleashed demons and gods to play their role in the resurrection of an ancient deity. Return to Heaven crosses lands, cultures and time to create a mythology and symbolism of its own.

With influences of William Burroughs, old horror films and Victorian chillers and with music ranging from Penderecki to Lanegan, Return to Heaven is visceral and poignant, intricately choreographed and laced with dark humour.
