Internationally renowned Theatre Re announce the return of sell-out shows to the UK this Spring.
Theatre Re, one of the UK’s leading theatre groups, has announced a captivating new season for 2025, featuring critically acclaimed shows which will return to delight audiences. Well established across the globe for creating strikingly poignant and thought-provoking performances, Theatre Re’s shows explore fragile human experiences through compelling physical theatre.
Showcasing movement, visual theatre & original live music, Theatre Re are renowned for their delicate depiction of human emotion. For each show, the company forges intimate collaborations with experts in different fields – such as science, philosophy and public health – as well as community groups, who play a crucial part throughout the devising process and development of their work.
Covering topics from Alzheimer's, parental loss, grief, and fairy-tales, this season includes the return of the powerful performance of BIRTH and the folktale-inspired Bluebelle.
BIRTH, Theatre Re’s sell-out Edinburgh Fringe 2019 hit, is a poignant visual piece of theatre that deals with the under-represented experience of pregnancy loss. BIRTH delves into the bond between three women from the same family, their shared loss and their unconditional love, as well as the strength they discover in each other.
Bluebelle: Coming to Sheffield this June is Theatre Re’s visually striking and folktale-inspired production Bluebelle. This non-verbal production weaves together plots from distinguished writers Angela Carter, Italo Calvino, the Brothers Grimm, Charles Perrault alongside interviews conducted with parents and carers. The result is a new folk story that offers a new perspective on what it means to be a parent. Developed alongside Visual Vernacular and d/Deaf Artists, Bluebelle is accessible to d/Deaf audiences without the need for BSL interpretation.
