I've just had a look at The Lowry website to see if by some miracle something of interest has slipped beneath my radar.
There is no dance scheduled at The Lowry until the Rambert Dance Theatre open on 22 September.
THERE'S NOTHING ON ANYWHERE FOR NEARLY TWO MONTHS!*
Fortunately I will be going to see Phoenix Dance Theatre's fascinating-looking new programme Declarations on 16 September in Liverpool - which will be like bread to a starving man.
So that's Urban Moves International Dance Festival this weekend and then cold turkey for nearly two months! And that's before government cuts starts the potential closure of tens of touring companies - for that is what could happen....
