After a nation-wide search, six exciting choreographers have been selected take part in Ignition Dance Festival.

Choreographers participating in this year's festival are: Cindy Claes, Salah El Brogy, Thomasin Gulegc, Estela Merlos, Jane Coulston and Sallie Marie. All six have performed with some of the world’s leading choreographers and dance companies before launching their own choreographic careers.

Festival organisers, DanceWest, have been delighted by the volume and quality of applications. Producer Rosie Whitney-Fish says, "The interest we've had from dance artists has been astonishing, but the choreographers we've commissioned are really special. The festival, now in its third year, is going from strength to strength.

Ignition is the only festival of its kind in West London, showcasing new and innovative choreography at the Rose Theatre, Kingston and the Lyric Hammersmith.

"Audiences can look forward to an evening of inspiring and distinctive dance that draws on the nationalities and cultural influences of the participating choreographers.” Rosie Whitney-Fish
