Bhangra Nation: a joyous celebration of music, dance and who we are
Super entertainment. It’s effervescent, the music and dance infectious, the characters relatable to. A tour is surely only a matter of time.

Ballet Nights 004
Another evening of dance diversity: the stars shone brightly and the mystery guest made a dynamic appearance.
Varna International Ballet’s Swan Lake and Sleeping Beauty
What a wonderfully beguiling Odile Martina Prefetto offered. Here was a real temptress, casting her spell, snaring her prey
Birmingham Royal Ballet: The Sleeping Beauty
Yu Kurihara’s Aurora is light, elegant and comes with a smile that lights up the whole theatre.
Nikki Rummer in Unbroken
A brutal, brave exposure of something deeply personal. We experience it as story unfinished and too late to repair all the same.
Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch: Nelken
Often humorous, the dances border on grotesque, as if begging [us]… to acknowledge that the overwhelming sweetness can quickly turn into horror
A box of delights: New Works at The Royal Ballet
There is much to like, not least that all have an overt classical core… A big hurrah too for the fact that three of the pieces feature pointework…
Singapore’s T.H.E Dance Company in a triple bill of short works
In Un-form, all three dancers are quite compelling, their dance amazingly detailed, superbly performed and clearly with great personal meaning
Latin flair: São Paulo Dance Company
All three pieces call for a great deal of ensemble work, executed with such control and precision that at times they seemed to be come a single entity.
Matthew Bourne’s Edward Scissorhands
The fabulous cast are on a par with any West End musical as they give everything, dancing and projecting character for all they are worth
Ockham’s Razor: Tess
The circus work is skilful. Joshua Fraser’s use of a cyr wheel to symbolise Alec’s immorality and avarice is effective and very well executed
