TANTRUM for 6 by Harrison Ritchie-Jones

Thunderstorm, baby born… dun dun

Breakout choreographer Harrison Ritchie-Jones (CUDDLE) is making waves with his eclectic and unconventional approach to dance. Clashing forms and styles with high technical skill, he’s using dance as a frame for absurdity, physical virtuosity, and surreal storytelling.

TANTRUM for 6 thrusts us into a parallel universe where 6 babies are born from a thunderstorm, each with a natural ability to dance together. Like young goslings learning to fly, they dive straight into the challenges of their choreographed destiny.

Featuring an ensemble of expert dancers, TANTRUM for 6 becomes a guttural primal scream—a mesmerizing storm of movement that captures raw emotions, chaos and grace. This dynamic dance work considers what it is to be human, twisting and reshaping 6 paths in a choreography of elegance, danger, ecstasy, sadness, and exhaustion.
