We tour internationally to theatres, arts centres and festivals, as well as unconventional spaces, including schools, libraries, parks and museums.

We love to collaborate and work with partner organisations and individuals to create bespoke performances and events. Sonia has choreographed and directed dance for film and music videos, ‘flash mob’ performances, mass participatory shows, festivals and cross-artform projects.
