Break Out!

Our Guest Editor this week makes a living breaking from the norm. Smashing down the walls of convention. Busting moves with the elegance and energy of a pro mover-shaker. Here strides the next generation choreographer Freddie Opoku-Addaie, guest curator for Dance Umbrella's festival-in-a-festival 'Out Of The System', 16-17 October at Rich Mix.

He's worked with the likes of Wayne McGregor, ROH2, Almeida, BalletBoyz, Frauke Requart, LIFT - among a bunch of other dancers and choreographers fizzing on the very frontline of contemporary dance. Ahead of his latest project - curating for London's international dance festival Dance Umbrella - we quiz him on 'Out Of The System' - read the interview here.
