Coalesce Dance Theatre
Job Summary
Job Description
Coalesce Dance Theatre is developing a new rural touring show for children and families, building upon the success of their past work The Old Green Time Machine, and their latest theatre production Mika and the Polar Bear.
Set sail on an adventure of a lifetime to find out what’s happened to our beloved sea. In order to restore balance, the tales of the past, and possibilities of the future must come together in this exciting new show for children and families.
With intergenerational stories gathered from sea-faring communities around the English coastline, this original new story from Coalesce Dance Theatre, will combine local heritage and children’s dance theatre to explore relationships with the sea, both past and present, and how we can take care of our oceans.
The show will feature dance theatre, poetry, music and song, alongside participatory elements for audiences to enjoy.
During summer 2026 CDT will be undertaking research co-creation with communities in Suffolk, Cumbria, Lancashire and Yorkshire to develop the story and direction for this new work.
