Tonight Botis Seva and Far From the Norm perform their latest production ‘Until We Sleep’ at Brighton Dome
Botis Seva’s latest Hip Hop theatre production, ‘Until We Sleep’, is a journey underlined with a resistance to change.

Amidst the oppression of leadership, a lone woman yearns for faith as she leads a wandering community through shifting passages of time. With a celestial blend of percussion and guttural sounds, music bleeds effortlessly into an undulating style of movement performed by Far From The Norm. Feathered costumes give glimpses of warriors transcending above their former identities, whilst piercing light interrupts the stage as a pitiless testing ground, reminding us of a higher power that carves our reality.
Until We Sleep displays the heaviness of hope against the burden of responsibility, yet within the conflict, there exists a softness that breathes life into existence.
Botis Seva and his cast of dancers Jordan Douglas, Shangomola Edunjobi, Larissa Koopman, Joshua Nash, Rose Sall Sao, Joshua Shanny-Wynter and Victoria Shulungu are set to embark on a European tour this spring, with scheduled performances at Tanz Koln in Germany on April 13th-14th, Rumfordans in Sweden on April 17th, and Theatre De Laville in Paris from June 4th to 7th.
For those eager to catch the show, there are still a very limited number of tickets available for tonight and tomorrow night's performances (March 5th-6th) at Brighton Dome. After these dates, Far From The Norm will temporarily bid farewell to the UK until their return to London in the summer of 2025.
Don't miss this opportunity to experience the magic before ‘Until We Sleep’ moves on to captivate audiences in Europe!
