Erik Kaiel's work is unorthodox, acrobatic and perfect for children (and grown-ups) who can't sit still. Inspired by playground games and the casual way that kids fling themselves about, his dancers tumble and contort, exploring the limits of their bodies. It's awesome. Dance Umbrella is touring three programmes from this Dutch company around London: Tetris (6+), based on the eponymous computer game, in which four dancers work as a faultless unit, uniquely dependent on one another. O Snap (10+) focuses on the stumbling blocks of our teenage years where emotions and friends rule. And finally the popular duet No Man is an Island (6+), which has been enjoyed across four continents to date.
