Both Acosta Danza and Dorrance Dance are companies formed by supremely talented dancers with a point to prove. Perhaps that is why, in addition to technical excellence, they share a warm sense of being heartfelt, of making the case that dance matters to its participants and viewers.
In the case of Carlos Acosta, his aim in founding a company based in his native Havana was a way of offering something back to his homeland at the end of his glittering international career – and a means of promoting and supporting the talent that exists there. That ambition both explains the quality of the dancing and the two new commissions on this mixed bill – the second he has brought to Sadler’s Wells – which will tour the UK early next year.
