Used lottery theatre tokens earlier in the year to book this. There are different programmes on offer during their 5th to 16th September residency but by researching/looking at videos I selected the programme '21st Century Creations'. The first disappointment was when an email arrived in August to say that the programme had changed and two short pieces were to replace one of the advertised ones. Then just before curtain up last night there was an announcement that the final piece of the night - 'Are You in Your Feelings?' (created 2022) was being replaced by an older piece, 'Dancing Spirit'. It wasn't that the evening was unenjoyable but from the audience reaction around us we clearly weren't the only people who had particularly been looking forward to 'Feelings'. There was no explanation of whether this was due to cast sickness or some other incident. I'd still recommend going to see this excellent company but you may not get what was advertised. Bonus of the evening was that the audience was full of stylish and well dressed people - worth the trip for the people watching alone!
