Blown away by Lest We Forget @Sadlers_Wells tonight. Stunning choreography by Scarlett, Maliphant and Khan and intensely moving on the horrors of war. Might be the best I've seen @ENBallet. On til 29th September – recommended pic.twitter.com/oLMtRq1t5k

Yesterday was pretty amazing. The news that the wonderful @djdaisyjohnson beautiful novel Everything Under has been Booker-shortlisted. Then had the privilege of seeing Akram Khan's #warballet Dust, one of the most significant pieces of war art I have experienced.

Loved so much of it, particularly the FIERCE women in DUST. The strength and the poignancy and the beauty of the whole evening was tremendous, thank you all.

The English National Ballet gave a powerful and emotional performance of Lest We Forget with three works to commemorate the centenary of the end of the First World War at Sadler's Wells. No Man's Land, Second Breath and Dust were all brilliant! #London #Dance

Poetic, hugely powerful, epic. Three splendidly choreographed acts culminating in the unforgettable @AkramKhanLive’s Dust and its caravaggesque mise-en-scène. I would watch it again and again. Spellbinding #LestWeForget @ENBallet @Sadlers_Wells #dance https://t.co/0Og5lGZqOA

@ENBallet Lest We Forget. An astounding achievement and surely unforgettable. Moved to tears in the auditorium this afternoon and damp around the gills in recollection on the train home.

Some of the best moments of my life have been when at the #ballet..on Saturday I witnessed a transcendent performance of #lestweforget at the superb @Sadlers_Wells theatre with the inspirational @TamaraRojo1 and @ENBallet …I believe @AkramKhanLive to be a genius #pasdedeux pic.twitter.com/SaPcLCtmW1

Can't get @ENBallet haunting productions of Lest We Forget out of my mind! Brilliant synthesis of dance, emotion, music & lighting. I hope it remains in the repertoire for future years as a modern classic like Britten's War Requiem. Any chance of a DVD? Thank you ENB @TamaraRojo1
