  The young companies attending MESH almost invariably produce a mission statement, probably dreamed up by an intellectually ambitious adult, that’s hard to live up to.

           <description><![CDATA[
  David Bintley has revived his ambitious danced version of Thomas Hardy’s novel Far from the Madding Crowd. It’s a country tale of passionate Bathsheba Everdene, and the three men who desire her:
  decent farm-hand Gabriel Oak, rich, obsessive William Boldwood, and dashing but deceitful Sergeant Francis Troy.

           <description><![CDATA[  Covering dance for The Oxford Times doesn’t mean just going to the posh stuff. I see quite a few amateur performances, and I was impressed by Yuka’s group. Most of the dancers are in their late
  teens or early twenties, and range from Oxford University students to professional microbiologists. Many have studied dance since childhood, but what dedication and love of the art it must take to
  keep training, during a busy adult life, to the point where you can take part in a show of this quality. Of course it’s not professional standard, but, in a long (three-hour) programme, there were
  many enjoyable moments.

           <description><![CDATA[
  I had my doubts about this; the publicity photos of totties in tutus posing with the macho Flawless boys not only accentuated the separation of the two styles, but created street-boy versus posh
  girl feeling. The corny story of how they join up to foil a mad professor who is going to alter time sounded ludicrous. But, to my great surprise, the whole thing works, mainly because those photos
  are misleading, and the only tutus appear when six girls seem to be butterflies, as the team find their way through the maze that leads to the professor’s mansion.

           <description><![CDATA[
  On their last visit, two years ago, this company was impressive; this time their show was a disappointment. Choreographer Itzik Galili has won a lot of awards, and is involved in the Olympics
  opening ceremony. In his Sombrisa, stark, unflattering shafts of light pierce the gloom to show, or not show, the dancers. The interminable, repetitive Drumming Part 1, by Steve Reich, actually
  makes a suitable background for this lacklustre work, that, until the end, looks like a PE class, with the dancers on parade in rows. For some reason the men are in white shirts, black bow-ties,
  brief black shorts and boxing gloves. It looks as though the referee has put on some gloves and got in the ring without his trousers. The girls wear boxing gloves too (pictured), making them look
  like graceful amputees.
