Anything is Valid Dance Theatre

“There was a strange sense that we could be anywhere, at any time…”

Anything Is Valid Dance Theatre invites you to come in, sit back, eat a biscuit and join us on the ride as Life in Miniature takes you up close to the lives of two unknown travellers. Playful, exciting and strangely beautiful, this is a show about two people, one small space and time on the road.
