'New Wave Ballet' explores twentieth-century choreographer Kenneth MacMillan's early work. This newly-reversioned version of the documentary film features interviews and never before seen archival footage. Filmmaker Lynne Wake will introduce the film. The screening will be followed by a discussion on working with Kenneth MacMillan led by Dame Monica Mason, who danced in Sir Kenneth's ballets.

A drinks reception will follow the screening and discussion.

Lynne Wake was a professional ballet dancer with the Sadler’s Wells Royal Ballet (now Birmingham Royal Ballet) before becoming a filmmaker.
