★★★★✰ Didy Veldman's company is touring again and life is good as thoughtful, quality dance hits smaller local venues once again - in my case the friendly Wilde Theatre at Salt Hill Park in Bracknell.

★★★✰✰ Strangely neither the Arnott website or the programme highlight or say much about why the company is all female. I'm not against single-sex companies and the BalletBoyz show how effective it can be... but it seems too restrictive a vision here.
★★★✰✰ Veldman sure knows how to pick all the right ingredients for a dance show - but they really need presenting in a less cryptic way than they are here. But do go to see great contemporary dancers and a great violinist strut their stuff and enjoy it for that...
There were two bright spots in a show calling out Fado without so much Fado - the dancing of Nuno Silva and Stephanie Dufresne.
