From Barbados to London, contemporary dancer and choreographer Liam Woodvine is developing a distinctive choreographic voice rooted in curiosity, connection and a willingness to take creative risks. Ahead of Ballet Nights 012, we caught up with Liam to talk about his new work BREATH, the collaborators and experiences shaping his practice, and his hopes for the future.

A showcase, unlike anything seen before.
