we're off to see the wizard
I went to the Weston Auditorium, University of Hertfordshire on Monday 4th of March 2019. This is a production showcasing the Stanborough School of Dance and their talented young people.
The evening was an entertaining walk along the yellow brick road interpreted by dance and music. The scenery was colourful with large bold backdrops. The clever use of the technical lighting all added into the experience bringing the story of 0z to life.

Dance Springs
I went to the Weston Auditorium University of Hertfordshire, on Saturday 3rd of May 2014, where I saw the performance called “Dance Springs”. This was a collection of short dance pieces. I will only review two of the pieces. The performances were all created and danced by emerging artists. The intention was to try and bring together Dance, Choreographers and the Digital Media.
The first dance is called “Bridging the Void” by Choreographer and Film Artist Rachel Johnson.

The Red Shoes - Matthew Bourne ballet
The Red Shoes was performed at the Milton Keynes Theatre in Milton Keynes. It took place on Thursday 16th February 2017 at 19:30. This was the first proper ballet that I had ever been to see so I did find it a bit confusing because there were no words. I managed to pick up the main story line but I would probably have to go back and watch it again to completely understand it.
