Run, walk, pirouette – just get to the Festival of New Dance 2025

October 2025

Continuing through the weekend, the Festival leaps and sours, entertains and amazes. So far audiences have seen solos, ensembles, duets, even a short film from Lynn Panting – so much on offer. Upcoming workshops and performances include African Rhythms and Melodies in Action – A Bodily Experience, with Aly Keita; a Dance Commute, guided by Vanessa Cardoso-Whelan; and the Vertical Dance with Cirque’letics, (pictured above).
