2013 Reflection

Wow what a fantastic year it's been for us! We premiered 'Ballet in Sneakers' and 'Unravel' at Uppingham Theatre back in July and had such wonderful feedback from the show. Since then, we have performed the work at Lakelands Hospice in Corby and at a public event in Uppingham.

Both Theresa and Frankie got engaged this year- both in very beautiful settings- Theresa was at the Grand Canyon, Arizona and Frankie was in Central Park, New York. Congratulations girls!

We are busy in the studio with 'Unravel'. After the premiere in July, we had such positive feedback about the work that we have decided to extend the piece to make a full, stand alone show. If you are unfamiliar with the piece, it deals with the subject of relationships in a very personal way (see current work).

We have some very exciting projects lined up for 2014, including the release of 'Unravel' full length.

Tickets on Sale now!!!

We are extremely excited to announce that tickets to our 2 part spectacular, Ballet in Sneakers/Unravel, showing at Uppingham Theatre on Saturday 20th July are now on sale!!!

Join us for an exhilarating evening of modern dance!

'Ballet in Sneakers' is a recreation of Jerome Robbins' 'Opus Jazz' It's a colourful and playful celebration of youth and friendship. Set in the streets of New York, a group of friends playfully celebrate their freedom through movement that blends Jazz, Ballet and Ballroom to create a powerful, expressive, sexy, contemporary style.

'Unravel' explores the idea of human relationships, touching on first meetings, individuality, affection and letting go of boundaries to reveal who we really are as people. Choreographed by the company, the piece is essentially contemporary in style.

Other Professional Work

Hi Guys, it's Frankie, just checking in with you all and reporting back on my residency with Retina Dance Company. I had the best time working with Belgian choreographer Fillip Van Huffel and his extremely talented company of 6 dancers. His style is incredible, very intricate and courageous which made for a great challenge. I can't wait to get back into the studio with the other Launchers tomorrow to catch up with them about my time with Retina. Feeling very inspired by the companies bold approach and very honoured to have been a part of 'Layers of Skin'. If you haven't seen this company in action yet, you must, they will blow you away.
