5/5
Pitched as a last London performance, choreographed and danced by Russell Maliphant with Sylvie Guillem, Push is just about the most anticipated, hyped and then critically acclaimed contemporary dance piece of the year and rightly so.
The wow factor and capacity to thrill throughout this bewildering and physically exacting 30-minute duet comes by way of the difficult to work out holding and falling positions, unfolding into a fast flow of combinations and intersections.
