Still Pointless: BalletBoyz at 25
"A high quality dance company that doesn't take itself too seriously, but takes the art seriously. We try and package our performances so that there's something for everybody, that will make you laugh, make you think, and will create some sort of emotional response."
"Pointless by name—a playful reference to the pointe shoes we associate with ballet—but certainly not by nature: Nunn and Trevitt brought their impeccable Royal Ballet training and preternatural mutual connection to bear on the unique movement language of Russell Maliphant's Critical Mass."
"They did it in such perfect synchrony, that they left me breathless. It was something genuinely new and thrilling, which appeared to open endless possibilities for dance in the 21st century."
BalletBoyz, founded by former Royal Ballet dancers Michael Nunn and William Trevitt, has evolved over 25 years to create a unique dance experience. Their performances blend humor and emotional depth, appealing to a wide audience. The company’s first show, Pointless, showcased their innovative approach to dance, emphasizing a new movement language. This playful yet serious attitude has allowed BalletBoyz to explore complex works while maintaining audience engagement, ultimately redefining contemporary dance in the 21st century.
