Vanhulle Dance Theatre
Join us for a funny and feel-good tale of friendship and the wonder of the natural world, told through a captivating mixture of physical theatre and martial arts.
Two strangers meet in a forest and must learn to overcome their differences to help protect mother nature. How will they learn to work together? Will they make it in time to save mother nature?
Immerse yourselves in Vanhulle’s forest of wonders, featuring spellbinding acrobatics and a world brimming with imagination.
NB. This is a schools event, for an invited audience only. Please see other performances of Olive Branch below that are taking place across Greater Manchester during the festival that are open to the public.
