A most entertaining evening of dance theatre from Michael Keegan-Dolan and Rachel Poirier at Sadler's Wells East. 

The Royal Opera's season opener is a welcome return for Tchaikovsky's opera after nine years, and a house debut for American director Ted Huffman.

MÁM is a performance that demands attention through an extraordinary chain of surreal events.

A potent rendering of Alban Berg's tale of the traumatised and impoverished war veteran.

Inspiration eludes the director as a new staging of Saint-Säens’ biblical epic falls flat but for some excellent musical performances led by outstanding mezzo Elīna Garanča. 

An unforgettable evening of contemporary dance with Keegan-Dolan’s Mám in Madrid, with excellent performances from Cormac Begley, s t a r g a z e and Teaċ Daṁsa company.

Christopher Purves bosses the show as Méphistophélès; Richard Jones' production is intelligent and carefully thought through but ultimately unconvincing.

Tough, thrilling, ambitious and new: The Skating Rink is an exciting new major commission by Garsington, and its world première delivered on every level.

A series of ill-advised staging choices leads to a disappointingly drab performance of Monteverdi's Homeric epic.
