For me, dance has got to have great music. If the choreography is good but the music isn't, then I'm not really interested. Happily, all three pieces scored well: 5 mins of Handel, 15 mins of Sparklehorse, and for the main piece, 30 mins of Nouvelle Vague, Goldmund and Philip Glass.
A colleague gave me a ticket for I, Molvolio, so I got to see it after all. It's the fourth one-man play Tim Crouch has done on 'Shakespeare from the perspective of a lesser-known character', Molvolio being the humiliated steward in Twelfth Night. I think I preferred I, Peaseblossom, the fairy in Midsummer Night's Dream, but it's a joy to watch Crouch perform in anything.
