Dancing Times Magazine June 2020 Retour à l'édition précédente

All of the team at Dancing Times hope you are keeping safe and well in these difficult times. We have been very touched by the messages we got from readers over the past month saying how delighted they had been to receive the magazine during the lockdown (you can read a selection of them in Letters). Happily, I’m glad to say we are back again with our June issue, which I hope you will find engaging, despite the lack of actual dance performances taking place around the world at the moment. This month, we find out how performers, directors, teachers and choreographers in many different styles of dance have been coping with the COVID-19 pandemic, with a particular emphasis on the dance classes taking place at home, both for professionals and for students of all ages and abilities. We also take a sample of some of the classes available to you online.
In addition, we find out more about the resurgent ballet company at Palermo’s Teatro Massimo, take a look back at The Royal Ballet’s recent performances of the classics, and discover how dance can be of benefit for the visually impaired. Although the magazine, by necessity, is slimmer than normal, you will still find it is packed with dance!
