Lost Dog in Ben Duke’s Ruination: essential viewing

Amanda Jennings, 4th December

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

****1

Lost Dog's alternative Juliet & Romeo

Audrey Lemarchand, 13th April

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

*****

Romeo and Juliet but not as we know it

Philippa Newis, 27th February

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

*****

Ben Duke's excellent Paradise Lost

Emily Brown, 15th October

Ben Duke takes on the role of a lifetime, playing God in his stunning one-man reimagining of Milton's Paradise Lost.

*****

Dada Masilo's The Sacrifice was powerful and magical dance theatre

Graham Watts, 21st February

An African reimagining of The Rite of Spring, it combines solos that fizz with electric currents and ends with an unforgettable, arresting experience.

*****

Haydn, Mendelssohn, Britten... and passing seagulls

Katy S. Austin, 21st February

The classy Elias String Quartet brighten the morning with enjoyable Haydn and Mendelssohn, but Britten doesn't sit quite right.
