Rambert Dance Company - L'eveil/Constant Speed/Swansong/Stand and Stare
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/Stand and Stare (T1477878986)
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 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.
Stand and Stare by Darshan Singh Bhuller, is a gritty and powerful piece that uses the white negative space and the vertical and horizontal lines of artist LS Lowry's work in both the choreography and set design. It is performed to Bartok's dramatically haunting Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion.
