Well that's my Festival over for another year.

Tonight I saw the NDT/Complicite collaboration, Figures in Extinction.

In many ways it was brilliant. The dancing was brilliant - NDT always are. The set design and lighting were brilliant (although in the habit of much modern dance, the illumination was quite dark - not brilliant enough, then).

But it was way too long, and at times self indulgent. The third act could have been cut by half. ...1/2
