Contemporaries/The Creation
To celebrate its 90th anniversary, Rambert presents two programmes at Sadler's Wells.
Contemporaries is a programme of work from a new generation of dance makers, exploring themes of migration, identity, society and art. The evening features new pieces by emerging choreographers, including Alexander Whitley (a Sadler's Wells New Wave Associate Artist), Malgorzata Dzierzon and Patricia Okenwa, currently a member of Sadler's Wells Summer University, all of whom have worked with Rambert and New Movement Collective.
The Creation is Joseph Haydn's masterpiece, with its lyrical arias and monumental choruses showcasing one of the greatest classical composers at his peak. Rambert's new staging sees over 50 dancers perform Mark Baldwin's choreography, accompanied by 70 musicians including the Rambert Orchestra, the BBC Singers and three soloists. Designs by artist Pablo Bronstein further complement Haydn's score.
