We’re excited to announce that as part of our upcoming performances at Sadler’s Wells, we will be offering a free five-day ballet class for pre-professional and professional dancers from 28 October - 1 November.

The class will be taught by AKC Creative Associate Mavin Khoo with live accompaniment from pianist John Sweeney. This is a rare opportunity to engage with the Company during our time in London, and to connect with our artistic team.

To express interest, please submit your details and a recent showreel via the Google form by 2 October. Details on our website: akramkhancompany.net

As September begins, preparations are underway for busy autumn / winter tours of Chotto Desh and Thikra. With anticipation and reflection, we look ahead to the months ahead. October holds special meaning for all of us at AKC as we mark our 25th anniversary, bringing a moment to celebrate where we’ve come from and what's still to come.

Until then, we are super excited to begin the next phase of Thikra with performances at Théâtres de la Ville de Luxembourg and Théâtre-Sénart, scène nationale, while Chotto Desh continues with Théâtre Théo Argence followed by Casa del Teatro Ragazzi e Giovani.

Today we celebrate our Artistic Director on his birthday. Each year brings deeper curiosity and reflection as he navigates the roles of artist, collaborator, husband, father, and friend with a renewed sense of purpose.

Happy Birthday, Akram.

After a month on the move, there's finally been a moment to pause and in that stillness, the closing of our Jungle Book reimagined journey in Japan feels all the more profound.

Over 200 performances in more than 70 cities! To every person who joined us in the theatre, thank you.

Over three years ago, a seed was planted when Dance United Yorkshire's Artistic Director Helen Linsell came to us with an invitation to collaborate. On Saturday night, that vision, Memories of the Future, came to life as 70 participants from six community groups across Bradford took to the stage, sharing their lived experiences and the result of a year-long commitment to a taster of AKC’s creative process.

The one-off performance was the result of a deeply generous collective effort supported by a remarkable team, from pastoral staff to artistic collaborators - including Ryan Dawson Laight and his incredible team who created over 120 bespoke costume pieces so that each participant felt seen, valued and celebrated.

Thank you Dance United Yorkshire for opening our eyes to new possibilities.
