...it certainly showed that Osipova is a lightning bolt which can illuminate and energise everything she appears in.
The whole evening has the feeling of an extended experiment. We see Whelan ridding herself of ballerina habits and trying on new clothes.
Woolf Works is a chimera, an illusory creation made up of disparate elements...
Margaret Willis has just been in St. Petersburg, catching up with the Dance Open Festival and also visiting the Vaganova Academy where she had some words with director Nikolai Tsiskaridze...

Karole Armitage is in a groove, and it's environmental. On the Nature of Things, presented at the American Museum of Natural History, is her latest in a string of works addressing the all too rapid ecological devastation humans are wreaking on the planet.
