Murder on the Dancefloor, Pleasance Courtyard (Venue 33)

Through an imaginative, fast-flowing combination of dance and storytelling, this young company tackle the housing crisis through the tale of a family in a world where the older generation have all of the property power and no desire to hand it back.

Murder on the Dancefloor, Pleasance Courtyard, Edinburgh * * *

The cast are strong and the movement fluid, but the physical theatre at times gets in the way of a deeper exploration of the young characters and the issues they face, with the story of a brother and sister, both still living at home, slowly swept away in a sea of free-flowing bodies.

Until 26 August.
