Three dancers on a purple stage, two dancers are leaping beside a dancer in a wheelchair

Three Short Ballets Reviews

Overflowing with great ideas
The Telegraph on Fools
...perfectly contained in finessed technique, faraway looks and pin sharp arabesques. The dancers are impressive all round
The Guardian
Dancer wearing a light dress leaps gracefully high above the stage, the set of a ramshackle building behind her
A quick shot of pure energy
The Telegraph on Victory Dance
Electric trio of works are a testament to the company’s range
The Stage
One dancer in a wheelchair leans back and holds the arms of two more dancers immediately behind him
Sombre, uplifting, melancholic, nostalgic and ultimately serene
The Times on Four Last Songs
...full of pattern, rhythm and moreish momentum
The Guardian on Fools
...fresh and perky
The Stage on Four Last Songs
Three couple, one in lilac, one in yellow, one in green, strike identical poses where one partner stands straight holding the other as she hold one arm above her and both legs behind.
A burst of playful, strutting, shoulder-shaking celebration
The Times on Victory Dance
...elegantly done by Northern Ballet’s dancers
The Stage
Dressed in red, a dancer leaps high against an orange sunset
