Standout pieces by headliners Ffin Dance made the audience gasp through the sheer strength and beauty of the dancers conveying the artful choreography of The Cuckoo's Nest and Duetti. The concepts were clearly driven without being trite and the polished technique helped the audience melt into the world the company had created.

Dream On
Cloud Dance Festival @ the Chisenhale Dance Space, London
26 - 28 September 2008
Reviewed by: Mary Kate Connolly

Udifydance presented PLeX, duet choreographed & performed by Chay Burrows and Christopher Reynolds. The sheer physicality of these two men dancing in perfect sync with each other, reacting to each other and playing with dynamics and suspension, created a captivating piece of choreography.

The Cloud Dance Festival: Dream On, opened the weekend’s entertainment with the choreography of Lina Patterson. ‘M’ promised inspiration from Greek mythology through guilt, passion, frustration and rejection. These themes were all evident within the gestural, quirky movements performed, although it could have been explored further dynamically and portrayed more through the repetitive structure. The music co-existed effortlessly within the space and the overall atmosphere felt easy but engaging.
