Dance til you drop with No Miracles Here

The Letter Room bring No Miracles Here, a live and loud musical tale of a dance marathon with a Northern Soul to this year's Edinburgh Festival. No Miracles Here is a story about what happens when we don’t dare to stop, about living and breathing and not always feeling like you can. This is a story of dancing and how the band will keep playing the music even when you want to give up. No Miracles Here is an anthem to feeling alive, keeping the faith and trusting that you are not alone.

Acclaimed company The Letter Room invite audiences to get ready to dance like they’re Northern in this sweat-soaked marathon of resilience and strength.

Stan Hodgson comments, "No Miracles Here is going to be the strong Bloody Mary that kickstarts your Fringe day. Think 'They Shoot Horses, Don't They' meets Northern Soul vibe meets that scene in Little Miss Sunshine when all the family dance in the Beauty Pageant". The Letter Room were inspired to make a musical about depression using the influences of 1930s Dance Marathons. This is theatre tackling an issue in an entirely new way - No Miracles Here is raw and celebratory, honest and vibrant, full of pulsating live music. No Miracles Here will be performed by Alice Blundell, Maria Crocker, Meghan Doyle, Stanley Hodgson and Alex Tahnee. The production is directed by Mark Calvert, sound design by Nick Williams, dramaturgy by Collette McCarthy, lighting design by Kev Tweedy and musical direction by Jeremy Bradfield. No Miracles Here will be presented by Northern Stage at Summerhall from 5th August at 11:00 (not 9th, 16th, 23rd) and is suitable for ages 14+
