Time Out says

Islington’s hallowed Sadler’s Wells might be London’s only dedicated major dance theatre, but that’s set to change in 2025 when its 550-seat sister venue Sadler’s Wells East opens in Stratford. It’s a boon not only to dance lovers but also to London: considering the number of major theatres the city has, modern dance struggles to get much of a foothold in this city, with the big ballet companies by far the most visible aspect of the genre. A whole second Sadler’s is a serious cultural statement, more or less doubling the amount of interesting contemporary dance work appearing on London stages.

Got a little one with restless twinkle toes? These free dance classes at Sadler’s Wells East – the famous performing arts venue’s new Stratford-based theatre – will help them channel their energy into a wide range of dance styles. Led by professional dance artists, the workshops made for children aged two to four will help develop their co-ordination, creative thinking and social interaction – all with as much involved as possible. 

(La)Horde / Ballet national de Marseille: Age of Content

Madonna collaborators (La)Horde are back in London this March for the Dance Reflections festival. The collective, known for its sexually transgressive and ultra-modern works (you’ll see no leotards on this stage, only streetwear), will perform Age of Content, a surreal meditation on the TikTok generation on the Sadler’s stage. Expect plenty of twerking, gyrating and maybe a bit of nudity in this voyeuristic take on life online.  Where is it? Sadler’s Wells East
