The Ballet Black formula works its wonders yet again with Annabelle Lopez Ochoa scoring her third successive hit for a British ballet company. 

Just a few weeks after being awarded the prestigious 2012 Critics’ Circle National Dance Awards for Best Independent Company, Ballet Black has paid its annual visit to the Royal Opera House’s Linbury Studio, presenting four new ballets that confirm the strong commitment of the company to original works.

Imagine a small company of just seven dancers being served a smorgasbord of eclectic new works, dished up by a quartet of today’s best young British choreographers from different top-ranking British companies. Ballet Black has just had the good fortune to present this spring season’s fare to a full house capacity at the Linbury Theatre in Covent Garden.
