Details
Michael Nunn and William Trevitt - former dancers with The Royal Ballet - founded their all-male company Balletboyz in 2000. The company has since won multiple awards and has produced several acclaimed television projects, including The Rough Guide to Choreography (Channel 4), The Royal Ballet in Cuba (More4) and Balletboyz: The Rite of Spring (BBC Three), as well as creating the digital work for Christopher Wheeldon's Electric Counterpoint (The Royal Ballet).
Young Men chronicles the experiences of young soldiers sent to fight in The Great War in a deeply moving portrayal of the desolation of warfare. Originally conceived for stage and premiering at London's Sadler's Wells in January 2015, it was subsequently adapted for screen in a commission by the BBC and saw BalletBoyz become the first ever dance company to present a full-length feature film
