Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.This is the world-famous main company of Nederlands Dans Theater: back in London for the first time in 24 years. Jiri Kylian, their charismatic director, was just a promising young choreographer at that last visit. Soon afterwards he was given the top job and has presided over the growth of the company into a three-part venture in demand everywhere, both for beautiful dancing and for a repertoire led by the highly original works of Kylian himself and his fellow-choreographer Hans van Manen. Both of whom will show ballets new to London, including Kylian's powerful staging of the Stravinsky Symphony of Psalms. Also coming, as part of their policy of encouraging young hopefuls, is a new piece by Paul Lightfoot, an English dancer in the company. Four performances only, so act quickly to get a ticket.
Sadler's Wells Theatre, London ECI (0171-863 8000) Mon to Thur, 7.30pm
