Performer: Richard Alston Dance Company

The final full stop for a much-loved company

A poignant farewell leaves the home audience wanting more.

It is sad that Final Edition will be Richard Alston dance company's final tour, but it is a fantastic production to leave us with.

A lifetime of achievement that keeps on giving 

Tango infused contemporary dance sizzles on a hot summer evening. Sometimes tempestuous, sometimes tender; four couples oscillate between summer storms and wintry chills. Tangent, choreographed by Martin Lawrence opens a triple bill by the Richard Alston Dance Company at Sadlers Wells. He draws inspiration from Las Cuatro Estaciones Porteñas played on stage by pianist Jason Ridgway. 

Contemporary Dance comes to The Lowry with a triple bill: An Italian in Madrid, Tangent, and Chacony. From Naples to Madrid; South America to Britain, a diverse, musical programme.
