Details

Phoenix Dance Company are one of the leading exponents of contemporary dance. Phoenix Dance Theatre returns to its London home under the helm of new Artistic Director, Javier De Frutos, with four works. To mark Javier's first London season with Phoenix, Sadler's Wells has co-commissoned a brand new piece, Paseillo, which will be performed alongside his new work Los Picadores. Los Picadores features the dramatic music of Stravinsky’s Les Noces (The Wedding). This iconic choral work for dance has been reimagined as a violent, carnal struggle between men and women - the high octane movement sharpened by top fight director, Terry King. Paseillo is envisaged as a companion piece to Los Picadores, and features six dancers performing movement on the theme of eros in art. Phoenix Dance Theatre website.
