Dance Umbrella

16 Singers is a special experience. Created by Katherine Morley for babies aged 0 – 18 months and their grownups, it cleverly captures the attention of tiny spectators using breath, rhythms and song, and by blending movement with an intricate, moving set.

Director Katherine Morley has brought together a team of artists passionate about creating work for children. Paul Rissmann, described by The Herald newspaper in Scotland as “the Pied Piper of classical music”, has written an uplifting score sung by the performers as they move amongst the babies. Choreographer Rosie Heafford, best known for her collaboration in the hit Dad Dancing, adds gentle patterns of movement in and around the delicately woven sculpture created by Sophia Clist, of Theatre-Rites fame.

With its very young audience at its heart, 16 Singers is a rare opportunity to share a beautifully crafted performance with your baby.
