Cie. Willi Dorner - bodies in urban spaces

Since 2007, Dance Umbrella has presented family-friendly, free-to-view events which have proved popular with thousands of Londoners. BODIES IN URBAN SPACES is an intriguing trail in which 20 performers lead the audience through some of Londons most atmospheric public spaces. Live body sculptures are set up quickly and exist fleetingly before the acrobatic performers disengage themselves and move on. The route is revealed as the work progresses, leaving it to the audience to follow the performers and discover the next installation. The colourful body sculptures offer a new and imaginative perspective on well-known spaces and architecture, as well as displaying astounding physical prowess.
