Bringing light in times of darkness…
Welcome to The Ministry - a group of outsiders looking to understand the world by interrogating the sevens sins for the modern day.
The Ministry is a highly physical, dance and visual theatre work which takes the audience on a journey through danced, spoken and sung sermons to create an evening that is both epic in reach and intimate in experience.
Politics and power, greed and grief, excess and excitement.
The Ministry has been conceived in response to the beautiful space of Leftbank - a deconsecrated church built in 1907 that is at the heart of the community in Leeds. The grand architecture is the perfect container for The Ministry as they hold a mirror up to the sins of the modern world and ask if there is a way through for all of us.
An eclectic sound world which slides from Vera Lynn to Kanye West with striking visual design in collaboration with Leeds based artist Andi Walker - giving you a sensory experience that will stay with you long after The Ministry has closed its doors.
The Ministry is an immersive theatrical production created by students on NSCD's MA Interdisciplinary Dance Performance and Maxine Doyle of Punchdrunk

The MA Interdisciplinary Dance Performance (IDP) course at NSCD offers the opportunity to work collaboratively with leading interdisciplinary artists, on projects extending beyond conventional choreographic approaches. It focuses on developing performers from all disciplines who want to expand their creative and performative skills across multiple contexts and media, including dance, theatre, performance art, and image, in readiness for varied and sustainable future careers.
