HILARIOUS NIGHT OUT

My Divorce Starring Dillie Keane When Angela Lipsky’s husband has a mid-life crisis and a mid-European affair, she finds herself adrift in a sea of shifty solicitors, a disapproving mother, a series of helpline counsellors and Christmas all on her own. Bizarre dates, suspect purchases, a near reconciliation with the ex, then a singles ‘away weekend’ brings about a surprise meeting and maybe some hope. Starring as Angela is award-winning comedienne Dillie Keane, best known as a founding member of the comedy cabaret trio Fascinating Aida and for her role in Grumpy Old Women.

PHOENIX DANCE THEATRE

STEPHEN PETRONIO COMPANY

Javier De Frutos Triple Bill

Petronio doesn’t tell stories, instead he makes beautiful pictures by getting his dancers to perform some of the most demanding twists and turns you’ll see on a stage today, giving him a reputation as one of the great choreographers of the moment. www.WorldWideDanceUK.com

This triple bill of dance works by Phoenix’s Artistic Director, Olivier Award-winning Javier De Frutos, is on the theme of Body & Eros. Paseillo is the first stage of the ritual; Los Picadores is a violent, carnal approach to Stravinsky’s Les Noces; while Nopalitos represents a series of tableaux of life after death, inspired by the Mexican celebration Day of the Dead, where lovers and rivals meet for eternity.
