Dance

Dance has recently gained a new lease of life with the rebuilding of Saddler's Wells - a state of the art venue specifically tailored to dance. Britain is not traditionally b on Classical Ballet, but is hot on modern dance. The all-male 'Swan Lake' was a deserved hit and others are to follow. Watch out specifically for Rambert seasons, two or three times a year. Many contemporary groups have their home in London and the number of top visiting companies has risen dramatically. In the first week of any run at Saddlers Wells there are usually good proms tickets for £5 to be had - if you don't mind standing.
