Rambert Dance Company - L'eveil/Constant Speed/Swansong/Anatomica #3
Work:: Rambert Dance Company (S887)
Britain's biggest and most exciting touring dance company who often tour two programmes at a time. Dancing to a mixture of musical styles they provide enormously watchable evenings.
Production:: L'eveil/Constant Speed/Swansong/Anatomica #3 (T2058427102)
L'eveil is an abstract piece for six women, loosely inspired by aspects of femininity and influenced by the power of the female voice through song. Featuring live singer Melanie Marshall, it is perfomed to Kurt Weill's
Je ne t'aime pas and Leslie Bricusse's
Feeling Good, with costumes inspired by world-renowned fashion designer [Roland Mouret}.
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.
Swansong Revival Premiere - an intensely potent depiction of interrogation that is dramatic and sinister, but ultimately uplifting.
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.
