Dance Umbrella announces their full programme for 2022
Dance Umbrella, London’s annual international contemporary dance festival has announced the full programme for 2022.
Bringing the world’s most exciting international contemporary talent to stages across London, and online for audiences worldwide, this year’s programme has a particular focus on intersectional, diverse, innovative, international and national female dancemakers.
Artistic director and chief executive Freddie Opoku-Addaie’s first full Dance Umbrella festival will take place from October 7 – 23 across the capital and via danceumbrella.co.uk.
Mr Opoku-Addaie said: “I am buzzing sharing this year’s programme which is filled with talent, invention, intelligence and ferocity.
“An intersectional mix of female artists lead the charge, and I am proud to be able to platform multiple exceptional artists who have not been presented in London before.
“Among the international line-up you will find eight UK premieres over 17 days in 12 locations.
“Online, we have four world-class dance films, panel discussions and the return of our popular Choreographer’s Cut series. From Sound System culture to Seeking Unicorns – there will be something for everyone to enjoy and be inspired by across our beloved global city.”
Award-winning choreographer Oona Doherty makes her Sadler’s Wells debut, returning to Dance Umbrella with the UK premiere of her latest, large-scale work Navy Blue.
