Canadian contemporary circus trailblazers, The 7 Fingers bring their hit show Passagers (Passengers) to Brighton Dome on Thu 30 Sep and Fri 1 Oct 2021.

Presented by Dance Consortium, the show is a thrilling mix of circus skills, contemporary dance, and live musical score. Exploring our fascination with travel, it will transport audiences to another world, where a colourful and diverse group of strangers meet on board a train. Through the course of their journey, they share their stories through virtuoso acrobatics - vaulting somersaults, breath-taking trapeze, daredevil balances on the highwire, blended with dance, narrative and song.

Ahead of their visit to Brighton, find out more about the talented troop with our 7 facts about The 7 Fingers…
