Kennedy Junior Muntanga, Ed Mitchell and Petronella Wiehahn review – full of promise

There’s something irresistible about Resolution, the annual festival of new work at the Place, which gives dance-makers a chance to show what they are up to. The audience is always appreciative, the choreography often thought-provoking, the dancers skilled and eager. There’s a kind of pot-luck quality about it. You pitch up and see what happens.

Normally, the event takes place in January (hence its title – it’s a new year resolution). But this year’s festival is unfolding now until 16 June. The three works on 27 May, the night I attended, were all engaging and full of promise.
