National Dance Company Wales - The Lowry , Salford
Not my review above as I opted to just go and see this for pure pleasure without the obligation to review it...
National Dance Company Wales were magnificent. Itzik Galili's Romance Inverse was dramatic and ultimately exhilerating, and Stephen Petronio's By Singing Light was one the most beautiful pieces of dance I have ever seen. One of those pieces that makes you want to cry it is so emotionally connective. Son Lux's original soundtrack that blended the words of Dylan Thomas with traditional Welsh folk tunes and electronics and choral voice was gorgeous, and - typically for a Petronio work - the dancers were exquisitely costumed.
NDCW's (mostly international) dancers are world-class and this was world-class work. Go Wales.
Wonderful.
