Lost Dog's Paradise Lost: a glorious mess of heaven and humanity

Exceptional, witty performances combined with superb choreography and script make Ben Duke's take on the Medea myth unmissable.

This all-Duke programme punctuates choreography with comedy, which in turn merges with pathos. 

Rambert presents an excellent cohort of expressive dancers, but the programme lacked an overall wow factor.

Clever in its concept, witty in its development, precise in its interpretation, refreshingly universal and accessible.

Choreographer Ben Duke offers a candid glimpse of Shakespeare's star-crossed lovers if they had survived the gauntlet of death draughts and daggers.

Haunting scenes and brooding prose make Handspring Puppet Company’s Crow a shadowy addition to this year’s Greenwich + Docklands International Festival. Layered with dark imagery, Handspring, in collaboration with Ben Duke’s Lost Dog dance company, presents a winding take on Ted Hughes’ Crow, splicing his poetry with movement and intricate puppet representations of the crow.
