BalletBoyz will return to the stage with Still Pointless. The show leads audiences on a retrospective journey through a quarter of a century of daring commissioning, producing, and performing dance across stage and screen. The dancers will begin a major UK tour at London’s Sadler’s Wells from Tuesday 12 – Saturday 16 May 2026. Check out rehearsal photos below!

The 10 world-class dancers, some new to the Company and some returning, includes Joshua Attwood, Dan Baines, Paris Fitzpatrick, Seirian Griffiths, JJ James, Dylan Jones, Benji Knapper, Luigi Nardone, Yasset Roldan, and Kai Tomioka.

In a nod to the past, the show’s opening section sees BalletBoyz founders Michael Nunn OBE and William Trevitt OBE returning to the stage to perform an excerpt from Russell Maliphant’s seminal work Critical Mass *, which was the catalyst for their first show, Pointless, at the Roundhouse in 2001. *Evening performances at Sadler’s Wells only.

The extensive national tour will visit Arts Theatre Cambridge (24-26 May), Queen’s Theatre Barnstaple (29 May), Theatre Royal Bath (31 May), Nottingham Playhouse (2 June), artsdepot - North Finchley (4-5 June), Worthing Connaught (6-7 June), Lichfield Garrick (9 June), Watford Palace Theatre (11 June), Wycombe Swan (13 June), Wyvern Theatre - Swindon (15 June), Birmingham Rep (16 June), Theatre Severn (19 June), Exeter Northcott (22-23 June), G Live - Guildford (25 June), Brighton Theatre Royal (27 June), Poole Lighthouse (30 June), Leicester Curve (3 July) Reading Hexagon (7 July) and Cheltenham Everyman (10 - 11 July).

The show will open with an excerpt from Russell Maliphant’s seminal work Critical Mass, performed as part of the original show at the Roundhouse back in 2001. At once looking back to celebrate all the Company has achieved and looking forward to the future with enthusiasm and ambition, the show will also showcase the world-premiere of a brand-new commission by up-and-coming choreographer Seirian Griffiths.

The evening will feature excerpts of work from the Company’s history from choreographers including Christopher Wheeldon, Maxine Doyle, Liam Scarlett, Xie Xin, and Javier de Frutos, and composers Cassie Kinoshi, Keaton Henson, and Max Richter.
