The annual Resolution festival of new choreography has been running at the Place for more than 30 years, giving 2,000 dance-makers a chance to stage their ideas, often for the first time. It gave choreographers as varied as Wayne McGregor, Kate Prince and Drew McOnie their early starts, and it’s always an exciting place to be. In each curated triple bill, you never quite know what you will encounter.
On the night I went, As of Right Now, by the multidisciplinary artist Nicola Adilman, took my breath away. It begins as Adilman poses nude for artists Georgie Huxley and Ushara Dilrukshan, standing at easels on either side of the stage. They sketch her in bold charcoal as she stands, arms raised, like something by Ingres.
