In May -  July 2010, DanceXchange and two's company's production Funny Bones toured venues across the UK. 

Funny Bones is a double bill of contemporary dance, choreographed by Enrique Cabrera and Luca Silvestrini. Enticing children aged 5yrs+ and their families into a new world of dance and movement, Funny Bones is a fifty minute interactive and sensory in-the-round performance by a company of outstanding dancers.

Enrique Cabrera’s piece, DanSense, (pictured above) explores the five senses and offers a stimulating interactive dance experience for young audiences featuring newly commissioned music. From costumes adorned with plastic spoons, to buckets filled with water that soak the dancers (and the audience!), this is a beautifully creative piece that will have children intrigued from start to finish.

Go! choreographed by Luca Silvestrini, (pictured below) is an imaginative and energetic piece of dance-theatre based on the theme of sport. Entering an unusual arena, the performers move from one sporting discipline to another, facing victories and defeats, competitions and challenges. The audience is called to support and take sides, but who will be the winner?
