8-9 October 2011, Dance Umbrella, London WC1
Square Dances is a new work commissioned and presented by Dance Umbrella performed across four squares in central London. Like migrating birds arriving as unexpectedly as they disperse, up to 200 dancers of all ages will fleetingly animate these quiet atmospheric spaces in an epic yet intimate way.
Audiences can choose to journey between the squares to see all four dances or enjoy a single one. Each distinctive event will be accompanied by the resonant sound of live bells ranging from a single toll to a specially commissioned score by Terry Mann.
Rosie Lee's Square Dances will be performed 6 times on Saturday 8 October and again on Sunday 9 October - beautiful squares near London Uni including Gordon, Woburn, Brunswick and Queen. It's free, no tickets, just turn up, but bring a brolly if it looks ominous as we will be dancing come what may.
