Death Trap - T842989422 Rambert are masters of dance theatre where the dance is exceptional and the theatre delivers irresistible stories.

A Triple Celebration: A Linha Curve/RainForest/The Art of Touch - T1540535657 Rambert Dance Company's May visit to Sadler's Wells is a celebration of some of the world's most outstanding and popular choreographers. Following its unprecedented success earlier this year and due to overwhelming public demand, artistic director Mark Baldwin brings back to London the irresistible samba-inspired lines and curves of Itzik Galili's A Linha Curva. In complete contrast, Rambert honours the life and work of American dance icon, Merce Cunningham with the UK revival premiere of his illustrious piece, RainForest. With its electronic score by David Tudor and reflective silver pillows by Andy Warhol, RainForest is a wonderful artefact from the 1960s. Siobhan Davies returns to Rambert with the London revival premiere of the Olivier Award-winning work The Art of Touch. The speed and wit of Domenico Scarlatti's sonatas are the triggers for the irascibly fast footwork that propel the dancers across the space scooping the air as they go, beautifully completing this eclectic programme.Choreographer Itzik Galili (Itzik Galili (A Linha Curve).

Constant Speed, Baldwin’s first choreographic work as Artistic Director for Rambert, has been widely acclaimed for its novel and charming approach to physics. Commissioned by the Institute of Physics, Constant Speed has been inspired by three of Einstein’s key 1905 theories. The result is 19 of Rambert’s dancers whizzing around the stage like hyperactive molecules, in a joyous and athletic frenzy of movement. Performed to sparkling waltzes by Franz Lehár, this ingenious and witty piece succeeds in making physics intriguing and fun.

The result is 19 of Rambert's dancers whizzing around the stage like hyperactive molecules, in a joyous and athletic frenzy of movement. Performed to sparkling waltzes by Franz Leh?r, this ingenious and witty piece succeeds in making physics intriguing and fun. Swansong Revival Premiere - an intensely potent depiction of interrogation that is dramatic and sinister, but ultimately uplifting.

Capturing the verve and beauty of the music in movement, this emotional and dramatic piece complements Mozart's heart-melting sound. The celebrated designer [Jean Marc Puissant]'s fresh scenery and costumes create a dreamy poetic world. Receiving its London premiere is Anatomica #3 by Canadian-born choreographer [Andre Gingras]. Andre has been working in Holland since 1999 and is described as one of the country's most innovative and daring young choreographers, having developed a highly physical and visual personal language. His first work for Rambert has been inspired by the concept of the body as an exhibition site - looking at how the human form is perceived in the public eye, from both positive and negative viewpoints. With a striking set and costume design by ex-Rambert dancer [Fabrice Serafino] and original live music by young British composer [Joseph Hyde], this new work is a vigorous, and edgy addition to Rambert's repertoire. Pond Way is the eighth Cunningham work to enter the Company's repertoire. Pond Way can be described as one of his 'nature studies'. It is a lyrical, contemplative, often sensuous piece, with the movement, according to Cunningham, being reminiscent of the game of skimming stones over a pond, which he loved to play as a child. The production is further enriched with a backcloth from the visual artist [Roy Lichtenstein] and a soundscape by [Brian Eno].Choreographer Karole Armitage (Gran Partita).

Judgment of Paris/Momenta/Dark Elegies/Constant Speed - T0120590102 Judgment of Paris Set to extracts from Kurt Weill's Threepenny Opera, Antony Tudor's Judgment of Paris is a sardonic take on the classical myth. In this black comedy, the three women are no longer goddesses but tired, tawdy floozies competing for the attentions of a drunken client in a seedy night-club. This little Tudor gem was first performed by Rambert in 1940 and has been revived on several occasions since.Momenta by Rambert dancer Mikaela Polley was created for the Rambert Workshop Season in January 2005, and has been promoted to the Company's main repertory. Momenta is an ensemble world for ten dancers and is performed to an original score of the same name by Patrick Nunn, a doctoral student at the Royal Academy of Music. Mikaela has been a dancer with the Company since 2001 and this promotion is continuing proof of Rambert's dedication to nurturing choreographers from within its ranks. Dark Elegies initially struck a chord with those aware of civilian suffering in the Spanish Civil War, but its timeless and eloquent choreography has retained its significance, particularly to disasters involving groups of children. When it opened in Edinburgh in September 2004 it coincided with the breaking news of the school siege in Beslan, bringing a tragic relevance to the piece. Constant Speed has been specially commissioned by The Institute of Physics to mark Einstein Year 2005. Einstein Year celebrates the centenary of the publication of Albert Einstein's major theories, including the theory of special relativity; theories which changed scientific thinking about the universe forever, Inspired by the fizz and sparkle of molecules ricocheting in space, Constant Speed will be performed to the luxuriant music of Franz Lehar and designed by film/art director Michael Howells.Choreographer Antony Tudor (Antony Tudor (Judgment of Paris).

Twin Suite 2/Hurricane/Ground Level Overlay/The Celebrated Soubrette - T0824984201 Twin Suite 2 - Performed to the pulsating rhythms of Aphex Twin, eight dancers immerse themselves in frenetic but exquisitely crafted movement, in which tense, edgy duets give way to exhilarating physical expression. Twin Suite 2 is a distinctive and individual work performed with attitude. Hurricane - Bruce's dramatic work for a solo dancer is performed to [Bob Dylan]'s song of the same title. Hurricane tells the story of Rubin 'Hurricane' Carter, a black American boxer who was framed and imprisoned on a triple murder charge. After serving 20 years, he was finally cleared of all the charges and released. Ground Level Overlay - Created using the computer programme, LifeForms, this work must rank as one of Cunningham's finest. In it, beautiful sculptural formations emerge from blasts of activity and moments of calm stillness. Performed to a soundtrack of ten trombones, recorded in an enormous empty underground water tank, the music is enhanced by live musicians. The Celebrated Soubrette - takes 12 dancers on a tawdry journey through the glitz and grime of Las Vegas showbiz. This bitter-sweet snapshot into the life of a chorus-girl is decadent mixture of soul-searching and sequins, as rivals jostle one another for the limelight. It is performed to a highly entertaining score, inspired by the compositions of that larger than life American icon, Liberace.
