In its sixth year, NYDC returned to Sadler’s Wells to premiere a new work created by 2017-18 guest artistic director Sharon Eyal.
In Used To Be Blonde, Sharon skilfully utilises the company’s passion, energy and collective drive, which perfectly suits the strength and intensity of her unique choreographic language.
“A name worth taking note of” (Evening Standard), Eyal is one of the most exciting female choreographers working today. The Israeli dance-maker co-founded L-E-V dance company, which performed Eyal’s OCD Love at Sadler’s Wells in 2016.
“If this is the future of dance, we’re in safe hands.” – EVENING STANDARD APRIL 2018
