I Got Rhythm Reviews

4 star review S'wonderful, s'marvellous – the magic of old Broadway meets sharp new ballet in David Nixon's Gershwin extravaganza.

The Guardian

…high-class kitsch. Featuring guest singers and Northern Ballet Theatre's own orchestra on stage and in fine fettle under the baton of John Pryce-Jones, the performance is akin to a musical.

The Times

…the must-see dance event of the year. It combines the glitter and exuberance of a Broadway or Hollywood musical with technical innovation and excellence, and stunning performances…

Yorkshire Post

Nixon's elegant and stylistically varied choreography – exuberant, jokey, lyrically romantic – allows all the dancers to shine.

The Sunday Times

An evening that's both uplifting and, undeniably, engaging.

Metro

A polished piece. It sets out to entertain, while extending the dancers' technical skills and showmanship. They’ve always been a can-do company; now, they get a can-can finale for good measure.

The Observer

…this production is a treat.

The Daily Telegraph

Cheeky, sassy, elegantly Sex and the City, Northern Ballet Theatre's stunning embrace of the glorious music of Gershwin is a marvellous Manhattan transfer.
