New York City Ballet: All-Peck
Everywhere We Go is a ballet that’s never forgets its classical roots, but ballet that’s also very ‘of today.’ The sort of ballet that makes you want to return.
Reviews
New York City Ballet: Contemporary Choreography
Tiler Peck’s Concerto for Two Pianos is an absolute delight. The intelligently structured choreography is as highly-skilled as the dancing
New York City Ballet: Balanchine/Ratmansky
Concerto DSCH… is a perfect closing number. A quite delicious, sensual central pas de deux is bookended by jaunty, fun and upbeat movements.
Far From The Norm: BLKDOG
An often brutal, yet strangely often beautiful in its way, commentary on childhood experiences and feelings; on the youth of today as they struggle
National Dance Company Wales: Frontiers
National Dance Company Wales attack movement without undermining its lyricism, striking a balance between power and ease that is truly admirable.
Birmingham Royal Ballet: Luna
A ballet of fine intentions. A ballet of plenty of fine moments that, at times, is quite powerful. But also one in need of stronger thread to hold it together
National Ballet of Canada in Frontiers: Choreographers of Canada
Angel’s Atlas by Crystal Pite doesn’t just speak to the viewer, it doesn’t just reach out and touch, it digs deep inside to find the soul.
Richard Chappell Dance: Hot House
“Incredible dancing, the sheer fluidity of which almost defies description”
Chicos Mambo in Tutu (and a lot more!)
The highly entertaining show also lovingly mocks acrobatic, contemporary and rhythmic dance. There’s a take on Dirty Dancing, and much more.
The Royal Ballet: Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
The opening performance was a triumph for Viola Pantuso in the title role. She felt real. Alert and bright-eyed… always gentle and courteous
A sunny evening with Birmingham Royal Ballet’s La Fille mal gardée
Fine, bright, happy dancing, great characterisations, Osbert Lancaster’s brilliantly sunny designs. Even a super-cute pony. A real heart-warming evening.
