A CONTEMPORARY dance and circus group has announced dates for its first live performances in the UK since the start of the pandemic.

The Seven Fingers will be performing in a mix of dance, physical theatre, acrobatics, circus skills and original music in Autumn.

The Canadian group's show Passagers will be presented at the Brighton Dome on September 30 and October 1.

It plays on the the idea of travel, both nostalgic and symbolic, and sees a group of strangers meet on board a train.

The Seven Fingers co-founder and Passagers director Shana Carroll said that the concept of the show means even more in a Covid-19 world.

Shana said: "The show has now taken on a whole new dimension I'm not sure I could ever have imagined. I hope it will make us treasure the days of simple liberating travel and celebrate a return to greater freedoms."

Tickets range from £10 to £23.50 and more information can be found at brightondome.org
