Dance Umbrella DU25 Preview

Dance Umbrella bills itself as a festival of all things dance. Now just three years shy of its half-century, over the years it has brought to London a mind-blowing variety of dance makers and performers, both established and untested, national and international. And it never ceases to evolve. Under the directorship (2013-2021) of the late, lamented Emma Gladstone, it unapologetically stretched its boundaries to become more umbrella than dance.

As music created by the live DJ sounded, the figure moved a glowing orb. It played with depth of shadow until morphing into two distinct figures. The delicate electronica soundscape matched the dark whimsy of the scene, indicating a moist forest atmosphere.
