International Dance Festival 2010

we love the challenge of designing and making for an outdoor space.

Here at Vortex, we love the challenge of designing and making for an outdoor space; from key costumes and props through to an entire set. Infinite possibilities are unleashed when you are working in infinite space!

For the International Dance Festival in 2010, we created an outdoor stage set across Victoria Square fountain in Birmingham for the production ‘Utopia’. We transformed the fondly known statue there ‘Floozie in Jacuzzi’ into a golden goddess by wrapping her in reams of metallic fabric.
