Unbroken is an emotional and personal story. The award-winning Nikki Rummer combines storytelling, movement and acrobatics in a poignant performance with universal resonance.

Unbroken is the debut solo performance by physical theatre and circus artist, Nikki Rummer. Nikki, one half of duo Nikki & JD, has created this brand new theatrical solo work which will tour in spring 2022.

One bittersweet Christmas, three generations of the Rummer family are summoned home for one last gathering. Told through the eyes of a daughter, Unbroken weaves fragments of memories into the body of one performer as a dark, previously buried secret finds its way to the surface.

Combining her talent for storytelling and her unique movement language inspired by her acrobatics, gymnastics and capoeira practice, Nikki tells a very personal story with universal resonance.

Unbroken is performed by Nikki Rummer and created in collaboration with dramaturgs Ben Duke and Jim Manganello, movement directors Steph McMann and Temitope Ajose-Cutting. With sound by Alberto Ruiz Soler, lighting by Seth Rook Williams and costumes by Loren Elstein.

Supported by The Lowry, Salford; Watermans Arts Centre, London; Warwick Arts Centre, Coventry; The Place, London; London International Mime Festival, London; Arts Council England.

Performed on Friday, May 20, book tickets at Watermans.
