Join forces with New Art Club, Dance4 and touring partners to lead a cast of stunning community performers and help create a show that will have the whole audience up on their feet and wanting to dance.

                  “I felt an ownership of the work and a valued member of the company.”
                                         Jon Beney – Local Dance Artist for Hercules in Doncaster.

Created by and starring the award-winning dancing comedy double act Tom Roden and Pete Shenton of New Art Club, this story of Hercules is told through hilarious dance routine and amazing speciality acts. It’s a modern cabaret for the whole family: a pantomime, a history lesson and a party all rolled into one side-splitting adventure.

At the moment, dance artists are needed for the first five venues of the tour in June and July 2015 – Gulbenkian in Canterbury, Derby Theatre (with Déda),the New Wolsey (with Dance East) in Ipswich, The Grand in Blackpool and the Sadlers Wells Peacock Theatre (with Greenwich Dance) in London.
