Internationally renowned dance company, Richard Chappell Dance, is set to present their latest creation, "Hot House," at The House in Plymouth this spring. This powerful and transformative evening is a passionate response to the current cost-of-living crisis, aiming to share the frustration many people are feeling and turning it into a celebration of collective generosity. The show will provide a space for individuals to come together and be uplifted by the extraordinary ensemble of performers, showcasing the joy of movement and music. The soundscape of "Hot House" has been influenced by Chinese, Indian, and European classical music, with rearrangements and performances by violinist Enyuan Khong and electronic music duo Larch.
