This brand-new devised production at the Riley Theatre delves into the characteristics of archetypal childhood trauma and explores what happens to these wounds as adults.

Told with Gecko’s trademark visceral and poetic style, The Rescue is a story about heroes, monsters and the fight for survival.

This captivating show will be performed by students on the MA Interdisciplinary Dance Performance course at the Northern School of Contemporary Dance, offering a fantastic opportunity to witness the dance talent of the future.
