Julie Cunningham, Botis Seva and Alesandra Seutin – Reckonings bill – London
★★★✰✰ Reckonings celebrates the 20th anniversary of the reopening of Sadler’s Wells after its rebuild. Rather than commemorate previous successes, it presents three new works commissioned from emerging UK choreographers as a deliberate statement of belief in the future.

Botis Seva – Women of Sun – London
★★★✰✰ It is rare to find young choreographers developing a distinctive movement language and Seva is certainly one of the most original emerging talents in UK.
