“by turns sinister, sweet, playful and almost spiritual. Eight performers, eight torches and eight rustly, plasticky one-man children’s easy-up tents make, lose, regain, break and mourn their homes in the vault through dance, silhouette play and the endearingly daft practice of rolling around the floor while still inside a tent.” London Theatre Blog

Whether home is a mansion, a shack, or a tent, we all strive to protect the place of safety that we’ve created.

Using their trademark blend of physicality, image, comedy, atmosphere, music and narrative, Tangled Feet explore where the edge of “home” is, with extracts from their brand new show. Is home a place, a language, a network of people, or a four-walled structure? How fragile is the membrane between home and the rest of the world?

How much of “home” can we take with us? Award winning theatre ensemble Tangled Feet are experimenters in physical theatre, working together as a unique performance collective to create work in new ways. The company believes in a process of complete improvisation and experimentation to devise exciting, challenging and surprising forms of theatre.

HOME will be touring public spaces, unusual places and festivals between May and October 2009, and again in Summer 2010. If you are interested in booking HOME, please contact tangled.feet@hotmail.co.uk

More about Tangled Feet: Previous shows

Tangled Feet were nominated for the 2007 TOTAL THEATRE AWARDS:

Best work by an Ensemble for Game? at The Edinburgh Festival 2007

Game? (2007)

“Tangled Feet use highly energetic and often hilarious set-pieces to convey the tensions, rivalries and attractions the couples experience. It’s observant about status anxiety and social rules, insights often translated into effective physical ensemble work. For Tangled Feet, theatre is a contact sport. The work has an anarchic edge and the distinctive stamp of a company who clearly know where they are going.”
