Jamiel Devernay-Laurence’s Ballet Nights is celebrating its third birthday. Initially a more intimate affair at The Lanterns Studio Theatre, Ballet Nights has grown into a regular feature on the dance calendar.

The increasingly popular Ballet Nights performs at the Edinburgh Fringe for the first time to welcoming crowds.

Many world class performances to enjoy in this 20th edition of the annual Ballet Icons Gala.

Ballet Nights is an ambitious dance project that began two and a half years ago and was the brainchild of founder, Jamiel Devernay-Laurence. Lots to applaud while celebrating its tenth programme.

For one night only, audiences in Frankfurt were treated to some world class ballet on the expansive stage of the Jahrhunderthalle.

Ballet Icons Gala 2025 was the 19th since its inception. One can only applaud the dedication of Olga Balakleets, Founder and Artistic Director, for bringing many of the world’s most eminent dancers.

Jamiel Devernay-Laurence's Ballet Nights series is growing rapidly in appeal, just one year after its launch. With ever more ambitious projects afoot and a packed Cadogan Hall, it's worth seeing.

English National Ballet School Professional Trainees show great versatility in their final performance of the year, with a highly entertaining mixed programme.

“Ballet Nights: New Voices” proves a hit in an unlikely venue in Ministry of Sound. Watch this space!

Pett | Clausen-Knight are amassing a bit of a cult following. In IMAGO, they prove that Ballet Nights' Jamiel Devernay-Laurence's faith in their collective talent, is well founded.

Highs and lows within a glamorous mixed bag of choreography are inevitable when people are travelling from around the world.

Bringing dance to the Docklands, this programme offered a range of genres and some star turns.

A mix of world class performances and interesting new choreography is a bit of a magnet for ballet-goers.

A new concept of high-end cabaret ballet with an incredible line up. 

I was fortunate to see Wayne McGregor’s choreography set on the San Francisco Ballet several years back, so I was eager to see Random Works, which was performed this past weekend in Kings Place’s Hall One. Random Works wasn’t McGregor’s choreography, but rather the work of ten young choreographers. McGregor is listed as the programme’s curator.
