The brains behind this sensational show is the critically acclaimed and award-winning choreographer, Kenneth Tindall.

Moorland patron and guest teacher Kenneth trained at London’s Central School of Ballet and previously performed with The Israel Ballet and K Ballet.

He later joined Northern Ballet in 2003, where he was a Premier Dancer, before turning his hand to choreography.

Success followed him wherever he went.

Kenneth scooped the Production Prize at the 26th International Choreographic Competition in Hanover for his first professional commission, Project #1.
