New Art Club's shows are a mixture of comedy, live art and dance - serious and silly in equal measure.

The company’s new show, The Visible Men, creates a world where the familiar laws of physics are unreliable, where things and people appear, disappear and re-appear somewhere else.

With some dancing and some talking, some simple gags and some subtle surprises, New Art Club take your expectations and gently smack them on the cheek with something unexpected like... well if they told you that you'd be expecting it.

The Visible Men is a development of 2004's The Short Still Show which was a finalist in the prestigious Place Prize.

New Art Club are Tom Roden and Pete Shenton, variously described as 'the Morecambe and Wise of dance', 'the Reeves and Mortimer of contemporary choreography and ‘back-achingly, stomach creasingly funny.’
