Ballet Black

Tuesday 25th April 2023

Now in their 21st year, Cassa Pancho’s Ballet Black is excited to present award-winning choreographers, Will Tuckett and Mthuthuzeli November in a double bill of new and original work.

 

Will Tuckett’s Then Or Noworiginally created in 2020, blends classical ballet, music and the poetry of Adrienne Rich to ask the question: in times like these, where do we belong?

“…the piece feels above all like a call for respect across any and all divides.” The Telegraph, 2021

Mthuthuzeli November makes his third mainstage commission for the Company, By Whatever Means, a love letter to musician, performer and activist, Nina Simone that combines ballet, jazz and the blues in a moving and inspiring piece of dance theatre.
