Editorial and contents March 2022
This month’s magazine is all about everything new in the dance world – new productions, new tours, new buildings and new dance champions. Within these pages, you can hear from choreographers Kyle Abraham and Marco Goecke, whose work can be seen in the UK during March, discover the names of the winners of the UK Open Championships in Bournemouth, take a look at the new headquarters of the Royal Academy of Dance with its CEO Luke Rittner, and read about the shows that Strictly Come Dancing professionals Giovanni Pernice and Johannes Radebe are about to launch following their success in the 2021 series of Strictly. This month also sees the return of MOVE IT to London’s ExCeL after an absence of two years, so why not come and meet some of the magazine team on Stand 212?
Finally, on behalf of all the staff and the readers of Dancing Times, I would like to wish many congratulations to our regular contributor Simon Selmon, whose wife Anna gave birth to a baby boy on February 14.
