Martha Graham Dance Company at the Joyce wisely satisifies both tradition and the contemporary

Rachel Rizzuto, 27th February

The dancers of the Martha Graham Dance Company may have been doing the repertoire of Ms Graham since the company’s inception in 1926, but Wednesday night’s program – featuring the work of four other choreographers – was proof that these are remarkably versatile dancers, capable of interpreting myriad forms of modern dance assuredly.

Requiem(s) de Preljocaj, trop-plein d'émotions sensible et confus

Julie Jozwiak, 6th May

Mettant en scène une multitude de représentations du deuil, le spectacle offre un patchwork contrasté et inégal, avec des moments bouleversants comme des enchaînements décousus.

Lérus, Eyal et le Ballet de l'Opéra du Rhin en symbiose

Julie Jozwiak, 4th May

Ici de Léo Lérus et The Look de Sharon Eyal s'enchainent parfaitement et semblent comme deux facettes d'une même pièce, où l'affirmation de l'individu et le sens du collectif vont de pair.
