Quadrophenia: A Mod Ballet
I can’t think of a single thing that I would want to change… The dancing, choreography and immersive visuals are all outstanding
Nicola Claire
GODZ by Head First Acrobats
Riotous dance-acrobatics along-side a risque sketch of four Greek gods enjoying themselves… non-stop show that leaves you quite breathless.
Gary Clarke Company: Detention
“Extremely hard-hitting and impactful dance-docu-drama… Everything about Detention works.”
Modern Table in Ham:beth
The six dancers present sequence after sequence of precise, tight, intricate, and repetitive dance, that certainly hits the spot.
Bat Out of Hell: The Musical
The live band do more than justice to Steinman’s compositions, they give them fresh life and vigour with feet stamping indulgence
Northern Ballet: Jane Eyre
One of the most beautifully danced ballets I have seen in a long while. All the dancers were both technically and expressively excellent
Korea National Contemporary Dance Company: Jungle

Circa with the London Philharmonic Orchestra: Daphnis and Chloé
A seriously impressive, eclectic display of acro and aerial dance gymnastics, performed on mats, each other, poles, high wires, ropes and drapery

A cross between circus and burlesque. It thumps with energy from start to finish, and is gloriously chaotic and random
Northern School of Contemporary Dance: VERVE 2025
As an ensemble, they moved as one when required to do so. Individually, they were interpretive and wholly engaging.
