Reviews
An impressive start for Regent’s Park Theatre’s Theatre Dance Lab
Drew McOnie really has also got a good thing going with this new programme to nurture the next generation of musical theatre choreographers.
Acosta Danza: A Decade in Motion
All seventeen dancers were outstanding throughout, never dropping their attention to detail, bringing intense emotion to their dancing.
Frauke Requardt and Vivienne Franzmann: Anatomy of Survival
The story revolves around a woman trying to buy a coffee, and the barista not understanding what she wanted.
Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui / Eastman: Vlaemsch (chez moi)
Picasso bent women with a brush. Holbein crushed ambassadors with a skull. Cherkaoui piles his house with dancers, books, frames, bones.
Fall for Dance Programme 2: Dog Rising, Resurrection, Impasse
A stamina-sapping piece by Clara Furey/Bent Hollow, Memphis-Jookin from Charles ‘Lil Buck’ Riley, and Johan Inger’s weird and wonderful Impasse
Jazz Arts ReWired
The quality of the dancing was excellent, with the men out-performing the women in cleanness of lines, and wonderfully precise syncopation
A Freudian dream: Dance Company Lasta in Naraku
From the outset the piece establishes a dissonant texture, as if pulling the audience into the fissure of a dream
Ella Tighe: Disco Queen
An hour of monologue, interspersed with freestyle dance routines but does feel like a set of unconnected routines rather than a single dance work.
New York City Ballet: Square Dance, Episodes, Western Symphony
Square Dance, bright and playful; Episodes, cool, detached and often regarded as Balanchine at his most abstract, and the fun Western Symphony
Ballett Zürich: Countertime
A well-balanced triple bill of a MacMillan classic, a European premiere from director, Cathy Marston, and a brand new commission from Bryan Arias.
