Celebrating a quarter of a century on stage, this is the best of BalletBoyz.
With their signature irreverence and discerning eye for beautiful dance, BalletBoyz return with their brand-new production Still Pointless, marking the 25th Anniversary of the Company’s critically acclaimed debut, Pointless (yes, it’s really been that long!).
10 world-class dancers take audiences on a retrospective journey visiting some of the very best BalletBoyz moments along the way. Over 25 years, the Company has consistently pushed the boundaries of how dance is presented and their productions have been applauded across the globe by critics and audiences alike. Fusing live dance and film, this production features excerpts from the Company’s rich history including work by choreographers Christopher Wheeldon, Iván Perez, Maxine Doyle, Liam Scarlett, Xie Xin, and Javier de Frutos, and composers Cassie Kinoshi, Keaton Henson, and Max Richter.
At once celebrating the past whilst also looking to the future with vigour and ambition, the show begins with extracts of Russell Maliphant’s seminal work Critical Mass, performed as part of the company’s debut at the Roundhouse back in 2001, and showcases a brand new commission by Seirian Griffiths.
Come and experience an evening of dance that could only be BalletBoyz.
Still Pointless is a co-production with Sadler’s Wells, created in association with artsdepot, and generously supported by the Cockayne Foundation.

It doesn’t matter what they dance. The result is always the same - fantastic.
