ABOUT
We are an award-winning female-led dance theatre company based in London UK, with a diverse international ensemble, passionate about dance and circus art.
We are known for our trademark bold visual design and blending this with aerial dance and physical theatre. Our work ranges from immersive indoor performances to outdoor pop-up spectacles.
We perform in spaces from theatres to garden parties, from large scale festivals to care homes. Levantes creates work for a multitude of different settings.
At the heart of our work is a passion for showcasing the extraordinary in the everyday.
We offer opportunities for local communities to perform in our professional shows in each place we tour, building relationships with our audiences and enabling them to be part of the work.
The company’s practice includes:
PRODUCTIONS: Daring, colourful circus- dance theatre performances for indoor and outdoor spaces.
IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCES: Colourful, bite-sized routines that closely engage audiences at events.
TEA & DANCE SESSIONS: We create visually striking circus–dance theatre and build communities of women aged 60+ through movement, conversations and tea. Alongside our performances, we run welcoming Tea & Dance sessions that foster connection, creativity, and wellbeing. See more on our “JOIN OUR COMMUNITY” page
EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS: Skill-building opportunities for communities, students and professionals.
These four strands help Levantes connect with audiences seeking something refreshingly different.
The Company has created an international reputation for original conceptual productions and work with a number of exceptional collaborators on each new project.
