A workout for your soul
At what point in life does a woman stop dancing to the beat of someone else's rhythm and begin to find her own?
Set to the razor-sharp sounds of international percussionist Manu Joste, Phoenix uses storytelling and movement to explore power dynamics, authenticity, and the messy joy of rising from the ashes in order to create a life on your own terms. This show promises to grab you by the heartstrings and not let go until the last beat has been drummed.

Phoenix is presented in tandem with Spit in My Face as part of Noctis Theatre Company's debut season.
Noctis Theatre Company is formed by RADA alumni whose previous projects include The Last Time I Saw Caileigh (Barons Court Theatre, 2024).. Phoenix was part of Voila Festival 2024 and we are excited to be bringing the show back for Battersea audiences!
The show lasts for an hour without an interval. This is a 12+ show.
