Jan McNulty Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Meet the artists Announcing the succesful candidates for Compositions & Configurations We are delighted to announce that we have selected six artists to take part in our creative residency which will take place at DanceEast this July. The three choreographers are Nandita Shankardass, Otis Carr and Christopher Thomas, and the composers are Kerrin Tatman, David Westcott and Beatrice Ferreira. We had over 200 applications to take part in the residency, and the successful candidates will be supported by a dramaturg as well as hearing from guest speakers who are leaders in their field. We will be posting regular updates on the creative process on our website and social media channels in the coming months. With thanks to our generous supporters Charles Holloway, The Linbury Trust, Idlewild Trust, DanceEast, Leche Trust, The Britwell Trust, McNicol Ballet Collective and those who wish to remain anonymous. READ MORE An update from our Artistic Director, Andrew McNicol The start of 2024 has been a busy one for Andrew. In February, his vibrant choreography Yonder Bluewas performed by the Joffrey Balletin Chicago. Described as "enthralling" by the Chicago Tribune, the work was featured alongside pieces by Liam Scarlett and Stina Quagebeur. The performances in Chicago were swiftly followed by the Dance for Ukraine gala in which Andrew premiered a new solo for Royal Ballet Principal Will Bracewell. Later this month, Andrew will premiere, Upstream, his first piece for Companhia Nacional de Bailadoin Lisbon, in a programme that also includes works by George Balanchine and William Forsythe.
