Young people dancing outside in an urban city setting

Oona Doherty joins NYDC as guest artistic director for 23/24, working with some of the most exciting young dancers in the country.

If you spoke to Britain what would it say? We ask a group of young people from around England to tell us what they think – the good, the bad, the ugly. The old and the new.

Ground-breaking choreographer Oona Doherty creates a brand new work in which the dancers keep getting up and keep showing us their real strength and beauty, in a repetitive movement of resistance, stamina and will. Their greatness in Britain.

Wall features music by Turner Prize-winning artist Mark Leckey, lighting design by founding member of Malaprop Theatre John Gunning, and costume design is by Ryan Dawson Laight who has worked extensively in theatre and dance. Award-winning photographer and video maker Luca Truffarelli is the audio, photo and video collaborator. NYDC alumni Nya Bardouille is Assistant to the choreographer.

NYDC is England’s Flagship youth dance company and run by Sadler’s Wells. Since 2013, they have produced high-quality, critically acclaimed productions created with internationally renowned choreographers such as Wayne McGregor, Alesandra Seutin, Russell Maliphant, Botis Seva and more.
