In the third revival since 2014, Peter Darrell's 1973 Nutcracker still has all the right ingredients to send the audience home feeling joyous.

Christopher Hampson's reinvented version of his own original Cinderella, Cinders!, is a triumph of theatre, whether the central character is danced by a man or a woman.

Clearly on a mission to prove that today’s dance world comprises many styles that feed into and refresh each other, Scottish Ballet starts as it means to go on.

Gene Kelly's only ballet has been revived by Christopher Hampson, with an excellent twist.

Jess and Morgs continue to break the mould of tired dance films by directing their first full-length feature, which offers much more than just a different way of presenting dance.

A welcome revival of Christopher Hampson's imaginative reworking of this perennial fairy tale 

Once again, Scottish Ballet produces another winner for the Edinburgh Festival Theatre with a double bill of ballets set to the emotive otherworldly harmonies of composer, Igor Stravinsky.

It was a successful program that showed off the considerable range of a talented and charming troupe.

A tale that is rarely used in ballet set to familiar music that now finds a new life in dance 

The centrepiece of Ballet Black’s Triple Bill at the Tramway in Glasgow is Storyville: set in New Orleans during the roaring twenties.

Ballet Black presents a compelling programme in its first ever appearance at the Barbican

The mixed program produced uneven results, but this company is home to some outstanding male dancers. The Shaker was a breath of fresh air, while The Architect offered a poignant pas de deux.

Once upon a time, Scottish Ballet put on a magical performance of Christopher Hampson’s Hansel & Gretel at His Majesty’s Theatre in Aberdeen. 

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.
