The performance might have been called ‘Bridging the Void’, but 'Enlarging The Void' would have been more appropriate, leaving us with so many unanswered questions afterwards, from the relationship of the three performers, to the significance of the sunrise over London, and why it is performed partly in darkness.

It seemed like so many ideas had just been thrown together to try and create this ‘experimental’ piece of dance, and as the lights slowly began to get brighter during the performance and you could actually see the person standing next to you, the same clarity was not bestowed on the dance itself.

The only void which seemed to be bridged, was one we would have been happy to leave well alone - that between the audience and dancers. Right from the beginning the dancers were out among the audience – frantically running around the Pegasus stage, charging into you if you didn't not get out of their way in time and even stroking your legs.

But instead of endearing them to the audience, it put us on edge, forcing us to be involved in the piece, the interactive element seeming a trend rather than a necessity.

As for the dance itself, created by choreographer, aerial yoga and pilates specialist, Rachel Johnson, it was difficult to pinpoint what style or type of dance was being performed.

It was more like being in a night in a club at 4am when the lights get turned on when people have had far too much to drink and need to go home.

But if having your leg stroked in the dark as performers throw themselves around is your idea of a pleasant evening out, then this performance is just the ticket.
