‘I must have done something right!’: dance master Jiří Kylián on his festival, fierce critics and the Ministry of Silly Walks

-
At 78, the great choreographer is enjoying a career-spanning celebration in Oslo. He reflects on his leap from dance to visual art and why he feels snubbed by Britain A gang of young dancers, their black costumes offset by colourful hats, cascade down the sloping roof of Oslo’s opera house for a jubilant routine to a Prince song by the waterfront. The building’s huge glass facade has become an unlikely stage for sculptures, digitally scanned from dancers’ bodies, positioned as if they are plunging into the building like the nearby bathers in the fjord. Inside, there’s an eclectic bill of ballets including one inspired by a painting from the Edvard Munch museum next door. In the wings of the theatre is an installation drawing on the Buddhist Zen symbol ensō. The studio space is screening short films veering from slapstick to the profound. But this sprawling festival, spanning more than two weeks and then partially touring, has a singular focus. These are all works by Jiří Kylián, the...

Kylie Jenner Makes Hints That She Is Expecting Again

-
Following a mysterious social media message, Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott can no longer deny pregnancy speculations. The owner of Kylie Cosmetics chose to smear her boyfriend's most recent post with a plethora of pregnancy emoticons. Many admirers interpreted this action as hinting at the intriguing situation a young mother might find herself in. Because Kylie gave birth to a son in February, but fans still don't know his name, so this news strongly impacted the crowd. These emojis can be standard lingo for Gen Zers when they find someone beautiful, albeit Jenner herself did not confirm subscribers' expectations. As soon as the fans began discussing a secret engagement or even a wedding of a couple in love, pregnancy rumors started to surface. Kylie, her sisters, and friends allegedly attended a group dinner on July 20, 2022. The only person wearing white during the event was the hero, while everyone else was dressed in black. The name Cactus Jack, which is the name of Travis Scott's label with the date of the purported wedding – December 10, 2022 appeared in the wedding registration, confirming the rumors that it was some sort of bachelorette party. Representatives for Jenner claimed that this was a falsehood and that the proud parents would continue to be single in the near future. Anyhow, as winter approaches, we will undoubtedly be able to discern whether Jenner and Scott are husband and wife. Time will judge the lovers. The entrepreneur and musician are not yet legally wed, but as you are aware, their bond grew considerably with the birth of their second child. So it should come as no surprise that Travis and Kylie have decided to have another child. Remember how Chris Jenner, Kylie's mother, meticulously monitored her daughter's spending? Furthermore, Focus She talked about the Mother's Day 2022 present Travis Scott sent Kylie Jenner. The pianist gave a million blossoms to his beloved.

‘I lied to get the part’: Melvyn Hayes on his ‘angry young man’ beginnings – and It Ain’t Half Hot Mum

-
He was tipped to be the next Richard Burton – but ended up as crossdressing Gunner Gloria in the now controversial sitcom. As his breakthrough classic returns to the screen, Hayes looks back One day in 1957, Melvyn Hayes was on the set of a film called Woman in a Dressing Gown when a man sat down next to him. “I was getting paid £5 a day and I’d been on location for three days,” the actor recalls. “All I had to do was walk up to a house and put a newspaper through a letterbox. That was my part. Finished. I said to this bloke, ‘I can’t believe the waste of money on this film. Take me. You could have got a newspaper boy on £1 a day to do what I’m doing.’ Then I said, ‘What do you do then, you lazy bugger?’ And he said, ‘I’m the producer.’” Hayes, now 89, giggles at the memory of the cheek of himself at 23. Back then, £5 a day was a decent whack. His first job in showbiz, in the early 1950s, was as assistant to The Great Masoni, a magician who tasked Hayes with “disappearing twice daily...

The Portable Door review – Harry Potter-ish YA fantasy carried by hardworking cast

-
Jeffrey Walker’s adaptation of the young-adult fantasy novel retains its edge thanks to its performances, but gets stuck on the whole door thing Adapted from Tom Holt’s 2003 young-adult fantasy novel, this is a passable attempt at kickstarting a new Harry Potter-style franchise set in a fusty-quirky institution, dosed up with extra Gilliamesque grotesquery. Co-produced by the Jim Henson Company, the production design is poky and intense, and the cast – with Christoph Waltz and Sam Neill larking it up – give it their all. But amid all this clutter, it sometimes has trouble moving its story forward. The Portable Door has a nice conceit: the venerable London corporation of JW Wells & Co is responsible for engineering all the daily incidents of coincidence and serendipity that happen in urban life. Not that wet-behind-the-ears intern Paul Carpenter (Patrick Gibson), desperate for any gig, knows the company’s raison d’etre when he signs up. He appears to have no discernible talents wh...
