New AdventuresMatthew Bourne’s Swan LakeTuesday 4 December 2018 - Sunday 27 January 2019 Tickets: £12 - £72 Matthew Bourne is a Sadler’s Wells Associate Artist Digital plans In a new partnership with the BBC, Sadler’s Wells curates and creates four 30-minute artist-led films for broadcast on BBC Four this April as part of the channel’s dance season. Each film introduces audiences to a different dance artist from diverse backgrounds and styles, taking us behind the scenes to observe them at different points in their career as they create new work or prepare for a new performance. Including extended sequences of performance, each film offers viewers a unique insight into the world of dance in Britain today. Acclaimed former Royal Ballet Principal, 43-year-old Zenaida Yanowsky, plans to overcome knee surgery and fight her body back to fitness to perform one of ballet’s best-known solos, The Dying Swan, marking one of her last public performances. Transitioning from his street dance roots to contemporary dance, Dickson Mbi prepares to choreograph and perform his first contemporary dance solo for an evening curated by Akram Khan Company. Audacious and funny, Leeds-based Carlos Pons Guerra’s darkly humorous, highly theatrical and physical work often explores questions of gender and sexual identity. Now for the first time, he choreographs a new children’s production, Penguins, for Birmingham Repertory Theatre, which tells the true story of two male penguins raising a chick. Experimental and highly original, Shobana Jeyasingh reveals the research and creative process for her new work Contagion, which evokes the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic that killed over 50 million people. Production Company: Sadler’s Wells & ClearStoryDirector: Glen MilnerProducer for Sadler’s Wells: Bia OliveiraExecutive Producers: Russell Barnes, Molly Milton, Alistair Spalding Exec Producer for BBC: Emma Cahusac Sadler’s Wells is also partnering with Channel 4’s Random Acts to commission three original films from Julie Cunningham, Alesandra Seutin and Botis Seva for broadcast later in the year. Linked to the new works the artists are creating for Reckonings in the 20th Anniversary week, the films will be creative entities in their own right, offering the three distinctive younger artists an opportunity to tell their stories in a different medium to a wider audience. Random Acts is Channel 4's short film strand dedicated to the arts, founded in 2011. Random Acts represent the worlds of art, music, dance, animation, spoken word, performance, plus uncategorisable combinations of the above, pushing boundaries, provoking thought and playing with form. The strand showcases work from as diverse a range of creative people as possible from across the UK and beyond - giving breaks to new talent and premiering work by established ones. Random Acts is commissioned by Catherine Bray and produced by Little Dot Studios. Audiences can preview it at Sadler’s Wells’ Sampled festival on 2 & 3 February 2018 and it will be available soon on VR platforms (Daydream, Cardboard, YouTube 360, HTC Vive). Celestial Bodies is a new virtual reality experience adapted from Alexander Whitley’s production 8 Minutes, which premiered at the theatre in June 2017 and was commissioned as part of the New Wave Associates programme. This is the first arts-inspired experience made by the Guardian’s award-winning VR team, with the Alexander Whitley Dance Company in association with Sadler’s Wells. It uses the latest 360 and motion capture technology to explore the human relationship with the Sun, enabling viewers to get closer to the dancers.

SheilaC Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 According to the Sadler's Wells website, David Hallberg will be dancing with Osipova. There will be 2 brand new works, including one by Ratmansky. There is no information on the other pieces, other than that they are rarely performed in Britain. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sim Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I always hoped that ENB would bring back Lest We Forget in 2018 to mark the centenary of the end of the First World War, so I am thrilled that they are doing so. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Wall Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Thought this interesting. A new incentive for the Joyce Theatre in NYC - A sort of SW equivalent - although it does have more ballet items than SW. Wonder if SW might ever consider this? The Joyce theater has an interesting thing going. One show each of the Wayne McGregor Dance Co., the Brian Brooks Co, and Dada Masilo/The Dance Factory (doing their version of Giselle). The idea is that you buy up to 2 tickets with a reservation fee of $1 per ticket, and after the show you pay what you think it was worth. There is an envelope in the program that you can use to pay by cash, check or credit card or you can pay online within 24 hours. Just a thought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RHowarth Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 (edited) Pay what you decide was pioneered by the Arc in Stockton a good few years ago now. If you were interested you should be able to find interviews with their director Annabel Turpin online.
