Platform A.D. was created in August 2010 by Holly Noble, Artistic Director of A.D. Dance Company, Associate Dance Artist with English National Ballet and Artistic Director of English National Ballet's youth company. The platform aims to help and provide emerging dance companies, of all genres, the opportunity to showcase their work in the beautiful surroundings of The Actors Church in Covent Garden as well as providing a regular platform for dancers and choreographers to participate in. Along with offering choreographers a unique opportunity we also hope that the platform gives people of all ages and backgrounds the opportunity to come and explore and be involved with exciting new and innovative dance. Memento is a collaboration between the Docklands Sinfonia Orchestra, lead by renowned Conductor Spencer Down and the composer Jeremy Holland-Smith, Assistant Composer to Joby Talbot at the Royal Opera House. This carefully crafted work aims to highlight the skill and technicality of the dancers, musicians and music on an equal footing. Set in the beautiful surroundings of St Anne's Church in Limehouse, this work allows the audience to appreciate and enjoy all aspects of the collaboration and the performers involved.
