A bold choice for Northern Ballet, Gentleman Jack is beautifully danced but doesn’t go far enough in celebrating difference, individuality and freedom.
Ballet isn’t always pretty, there are plenty of examples in repertoires across the world. John Neumeier’s Streetcar Named Desire(Endstation Sehnsucht) is to reach another level of grim but gripping brutality told through dance.
With a background in Dance Studies, Literature and Linguistics (MA English Studies from Zurich University and PhD in dance philosophy from the University of Roehampton in London) and a formation as a modern dancer (Ballet Arts, NYC), Katja is a freelance dancer, choreographer, dance researcher and dramaturge currently living in Berlin.
