Edinburgh-based dance companies All or Nothing Aerial Dance Theatre and Room 2 Manoeuvre have teamed up for a light-hearted family show, Heroes, which tours Scotland this month. Featuring a fusion of aerial acrobatics, dance theatre, contemporary circus and choreography, the show will tour to 17 venues between now and Sat 27 Apr.

Heroes follows the humorous journey of two performers, Tony Mills and Beverley Grant, as they navigate their way through the unforgiving world of idols, superheroes and celebrity culture. It explores what it really means to be labelled a celebrity, why some will stop at nothing to achieve it; and the process of being thrust into the spotlight, together with the dramatic and ruthless fall from grace that often results.

The companies last collaborated on a dance duet called Sprawl, featuring Tony Mills of Room 2 Manoeuvre and Jennifer Paterson of All or Nothing. Heroes rekindles the creative partnership, this time adding talented dancer and aerialist Beverley Grant into the mix.
