UK Premier. GoteborgsOperans Danskompani presents an evening of works by French Belgian choreographer Damien Jalet and Sadler's Wells Associate Artist Sharon Eyal. V Skid's set features a dance floor tilted at 34° to challenge the dancers beyond gravity. Epic, humorous, and moving, Jalet's work creates a new landscape of physical possibilities. The slope, created by New York artist Jim Hodges and Carlos Marques da Cruz, is inspired by the measurement of earth's gravitational acceleration of 9.8 meters per second. Skid is set to a backdrop of electro-acoustic music by Christian Fennesz and lighting design by Joakim Brink. SAABA is a mesmerising dance blending muscular and sensual choreography with a hypnotic, pulsating power. This is the third collaboration between Göteborgs Operans Danskompani and Eyal following Untitled Black (2012) and Autodance (2018).
