Rambert Dancer News

[Jan McNulty]

I got an e-Newsletter from Rambert this morning with, inter alia, news of three long-standing company members:

 

Some of our longest serving members pursue new challenges

 

 

Taking on a new role within the Company is Angela Towler who will retire from dancing to take up the post of Rehearsal Director, alongside Senior Rehearsal Director, Mikaela Polley. Angela joined the company in 1999 and has danced many leading roles including Cunningham’s Pond Way, for which she received a nomination for the TMA award for Achievement in Dance.

 

Pieter Symonds, who joined the Company in 2004, has retired from dancing but will continue to lend her skills and expertise to our Pilates programme in the new Rambert building. She is also training as a nutritionist and is in the process of establishing her own practice for health and well-being.

 

Robin Gladwin leaves the Company after 12 years to dance with New Adventures in the national tour of Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake. Robin joined us as an apprentice in 2001 and has spent the whole of his professional career to date with us. Robin is also a member of New Movement Collective.

 

We wish them well and are grateful for their significant contributions.
