This was Rod Dixon's final production as Artistic Director of Red Ladder after 17 years at the helm - what a fantastic way to take a bow! Thank you all, and we wish you all the best for the future! Beep, beep, over and out! 🚖🚖

Joe Le Taxi.. c’est ca vie. Yes, Vanessa Paradis was right. Joe the taxi driver in @redladder ‘s ‘Taxi’ experiences all walks of life. The audience goes on the rollercoaster of a journey with him. The fusion of the physicality of @maddogsdance company and the truly visceral

Go see @redladder #TAXI2023 @maddogsdance at the Old Woollen in Farsley if you can. It has everything you want from theatre: great story, excellent performances, fab design in all departments, highs, lows, laughs and moments that make you hold your breath! It's a right ride!

We kicked off the 'TAXI' journey with a bang last night! 🚖💥✨ The energy in the audience was palpable — there was laughter, gasps, and even a few tears. Buckle up, it’s a high-velocity, full-throttle ride of physical theatre, dance and drama. ticketsource.co.uk/red-ladde…

Really pleased to have seen this incredibly visceral piece of storytelling. Sad that it’s @RedDixon57’s last show as AD but heartened that he’s STILL pushing at the edges. My man @RwothOmack is magnetic. Props to the WHOLE cast and crew.

It really is the greatest privilege to be working with @heatontweeting @maddogsdance on this exciting new commission. We're going to have to keep you in suspense a little longer for the details but trust what @RedDixon57 says...It's gonna be epic! #TaxiPlay #DanceTheatre
Read-through of the next draft of Taxi by Andrea Heaton - a new piece for next year by @redladder & Mad Dog Dance Theatre. This will be like nothing you have ever seen!
