(“Por Vos Muero”, Nacho Duato; “Scuola Di Ballo”, Alexei Ratmansky; Dyad 1929”, Wayne McGregor”)

Under-whelming triple bill. Por Vos Muero missed the high and lows implicit in the title “for thee I die”. Ballet school farce “Scuola Di Ballo” was clearly the strongest piece, well danced and well acted - a well choosen piece to off-set the depth of Por Vos Muero if the latter had had any character. Dyad, although new, was just dated and uninspiring with no flow or challenge. The AB can do much better.
