Company Chameleon

Contemporary dance – Manchester

For all audiences

Wordless performance

Dance performance

A reference point in contemporary street dance, Manchester’s Company Chameleon is a trio that is at once powerful and nuanced, equal parts delicate and explosive. The title speaks for itself:, umbra means shadow in Latin, and this piece explores the light and darkness within each of us. What sets us apart? What unites us? 

Using the language of dance-theatre, this piece reflects on what we choose to show and what we choose to hide, depending on whom we’re speaking to. Physical, theatrical and dynamic, Umbra is a show that is both delicate and sensitive, an invitation to pause and get to know ourselves better. Can dance express social commentary or critique? Ask Company Chameleon.

Choreography by Anthony Missen, performed by Alice Bonazzi, Kadafi Mulula and Thomasin Gulgec. Enjoy the show!
