Company Chameleon present a trio of free pop up dance performances in their home city of Manchester, and the UK premiere of Amaranthine, a magnetic short dance piece that will leave you mesmerised.

Amaranthine is a fast paced male and female duet, which tells the story of two people who are deeply in love, and in conflict. As the couple desperately try to reconnect, the pushes and pulls of heated argument are felt, as is the appreciation of space and understanding and eventually acceptance.

Amaranthine at the Foundation Coffee House is a free pop-up performance will take place in the main bar area of the Foundation Coffee House on Lever Street, Manchester.

The image depicts a man at the centre with grey hair and rosy cheeks, surrounding him are fairies that appear to be created in his own image with multiple limbs and unique bodily proportions. Around them are hundreds of vials, microscopes and dated scientific equipment.
