The production explores "everything from Bach's means of composition as a form of divine worship, to the scientific advancements of his contemporary Sir Isaac Newton," according to DanceEast.

"Light will be split, gravity will be discovered and the world will be forever changed."

By the numbers:

  • Tickets are priced from £18, with concessions from £14
