This week, myself and the IDFB team are mainly recovering from British Dance Edition 2010, a four day festival showcasing the best of British dance to delegates from around the world.  During this event, we hosted our second IDFB reception, revealing our 2010 plans to over 400 people working in the dance industry globally.

Delegates and invited guests gathered in the stunning surroundings of Town Hall to hear our plans, nibble on some canapés, enjoy a drink or two, and pick up their copies of the IDFB brochure.  All in all it was a great opportunity to promote the Festival, and we hope to see lots of the delegates back in Birmingham in April for IDFB events.

Coming soon… over the course of BDE, we interviewed several choreographers that will return to present work during IDFB, including Akram Khan, Arthur Pita, Salah El Brogy and Ahmed Khemis.  I’ll be posting their interviews over the coming days/weeks.
