The Mayor of London Visits Our Mighty Groove Rehearsals

Uchenna and the Our Mighty Groove performers were thrilled to meet Mayor of London, Sir Sadiq Khan, when he visited Sadler’s Wells East to officially open the new venue in February 2025. A huge moment for culture in our city.

He met Vicki, Kloé & Joanne, watched us perform some moves, and also chatted to our pro & young cast about being an inspiration for others to follow.

The Mayor said:

“This is a huge milestone in the East Bank journey. Sadler’s Wells East will be a gamechanger for dance in the capital and across the UK, bringing world-leading innovative performances to a brand-new stage and providing fantastic opportunities for young people. With many of the staff and performers living and working locally, it is already making a difference to the local economy. East Bank is creating a fantastic cultural legacy from the 2012 Olympics and I’m delighted that Sadler’s Wells East will help to inspire audiences and benefit generations to come, as we build a better London for everyone.”
