Artistic Director, Dance Journeys, English National Ballet

Jo Meredith was Artistic Director of English National Ballet’s flagship engagement project ‘Dance Journeys’ between 2016 and 2018. This performance project included a cast of up to one hundred young people from four schools and the ENB Youth Co. The company of young dancers performed to a newly commissioned score at Sadlers Wells. Each year, Jo worked with four choreographers to devise, develop and deliver the project. In year one and two the performance was accompanied by live music conducted by ENB’s Music Director Gavin Sutherland and played by the Royal College of Music Junior Department.
