Latest Issue

For all of us who think of dance as an essentially in-person experience, the past year has made us think again. For teachers, students, performers and audience members alike, lockdown life means adjusting to a whole new world.

When classes resumed at RAD headquarters in London last year, Dance Gazette was there. Ed Thompson’s photos capture the enthusiasm from students of all ages and also the protocols that have quickly become second nature. This issue also explores other shifts in the dance landscape – from the digital dance-making that sits beside the physically present, to the safeguarding that is now integral to teaching. Welcome to the new normal.
