Assembly @ Dance Base, Edinburgh A sunny mashup of music accompanies choreographer Marc Brew’s feelgood coming-of-age story Marc Brew made the acclaimed show An Accident/A Life in 2024, with choreographer Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, about the car accident that left him paralysed below the waist aged 20. Brew went on to be a successful dancer and choreographer, performing using a wheelchair, and Brew’s latest piece returns to autobiographical territory. This time the focus is on the young Marc – or dancer Ross Malloy as a proxy – growing up in rural Australia, surrounded by football fans and sheep, and told repeatedly that boys don’t dance. What the show does really well is capture Malloy’s character’s absolute joy in dancing, how totally innate it is, the rhythm in his blood as he’s throwing himself into the routine from Footloose, or dancing along to a nostalgia-fest of songs and video clips from Culture Club, Wham! and cartoon pop star Jem, to the theme from Wonder Woman or jingles for Gillette. We get a sunny mix of disco, jazz, acro-moves and fizzing energy, with BMX tricks thrown in. It’s a reminder of the power of pop music, and also of the boredom and freedom of an 80s childhood. When his mum is out, Malloy dresses up in her clothes and performs, but this thing he desires is also torturing him, as does living in a place where he has to hide his true self...

Manager’s deal expires at end of the new season ‘They don’t have to worry … I want to be here’ Mikel Arteta has said he is relaxed about his Arsenal contract expiring at the end of the new season and believes his side will need to be better than last year to defend their title successfully. The Premier League champions will face Enzo Maresca’s Manchester City in the Community Shield in Cardiff on Sunday and are heavy favourites to win back-to-back league titles for the first time since the 1930s. The departure of Pep Guardiola from their traditional rivals City means Arteta is now the Premier League’s longest-serving manager, with the Spaniard having joined in December 2019...
PM steps up climate response with measures including better water access and support for building farm reservoirs Farmers must not carry the risks of the climate crisis alone, Andy Burnham has said, as he announced £65m of funding to help them manage the devastating drought. The prime minister is stepping up his response to the immediate climate crisis after facing a backlash from his own MPs and Labour’s grassroots for not addressing the climate crisis despite wildfires tearing through Britain and a drought affecting food producers.

Raúl Jiménez marked his return to Wolves with the stoppage-time equaliser that saved them from an embarrassing start to their return to the Championship. The Mexico striker, who scored against England during the World Cup finals, retained his composure to convert a penalty given for handball by Rayan Alebiosu that would have had VAR questioning whether the defender was in the area when Jackson Tchatchoua’s cross struck his arm. Thankfully for Wolves, the video assistant referee is no longer their problem. Jiménez, who had bought scarves for all supporters in the South Bank in gratitude for their response to welcoming him home, tucked away his first goal in this second spell for the club he graced during their recent heyday...

Pole wins her first title in 11 months ‘Sometimes we need to fight things we shouldn’t’ It came as no surprise that almost a year of pent-up emotion exploded from Iga Swiatek the moment she slotted her final backhand winner to clinch the Canadian Open title by defeating Elena Rybakina in two clean sets on Thursday night. As she screamed towards her team members on her corner of the court, pointed to her head and furiously pumped her fist, though, it was the tenor of Swiatek’s emotion that made her reaction noteworthy: she was angry. Her anger, she explained later, stemmed from the doubtful, disapproving voices she has heard throughout these difficult periods, most of it coming from viewers and the media alike in Poland...

⚽ Updates from Molineux; kick-off 8pm BST ⚽ Weekend fixtures | Looks like Rodrigo Gomes could play as a genuine winger rather than a wing-back. Wolves are also without Hwang Hee-Chan, Sasa Kalajdzic, Santiago Bueno and Ladislav Krejci for a variety of reasons. Damn, they’ve got a strong squad for the Championship, even if a couple of the aforementioned depart. I’m not ashamed to go to the Championship because I played in it for many years.

There were a few [interested] clubs but it was important for me that I was close to my children...
