Look At Me Now Mummy

Vincent Dance Company, On tour

This week, Charlotte Vincent celebrates the 21st anniversary of her dance company, with which she’s developed her intimate style of choreography as well as a distinctively female perspective on dance and politics. She will present a showcase including a restaging of the large ensemble work Underworld (London only); the funny and moving solo piece Look At Me Mummy; a screening of the film Glasshouse; and a space containing an online archive and live discussions.

Various venues

English National Ballet: Modern Masters, London

ENB marks its first season as associate company of Sadler’s Wells with a bill of works by three very different 20th-century choreographers. John Neumeier’s Spring And Fall is set to Dvořák’s Serenade For Strings In E Major, the tension and lyricism of the music driving the relationships of the four lead dancers and the corps de ballet. William Forsythe’s In The Middle, Somewhat Elevated is a classic of the 1980s: a powerhouse of slicing, off-centred dance that drives its cast to fierce physical extremes. Completing the programme is a revival of Jiři Kylián’s Petite Mort, a tender and brutal meditation on sex and death.

Sadler’s Wells, EC1, Tue to 15 Mar
