Lest We Forget is the most beautifully powerful ballet I have ever seen. Akram Khan, totally jaw dropping, heart wrenching choreography pal!

On 29 June 2014, we performed Akram Khan’s Dust on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury – a landmark moment in our history, and that of the iconic festival. Here are some of the reactions from audiences in the field and in front of their TV.
