Time Out says

Acclaimed as one of 2010's best by Time Out London, Babel(words) is an award-winning dance performance that explores language and its relationship with nationhood, identity and religion. Produced by the joined forces of Belgium-based choreographers Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui & Damien Jalet and British visual artist Antony Gormley, the masterpiece takes the tale of 'The Tower of Babel' as its starting point and draws together a group of dancers and musicians of mixed heritage. Live music includes hindu rhythms, Kodo drumming by Shogo Yoshii and medieval music.
