Carrie Cracknell and Anna Williams

These performances of the acclaimed I Am Falling mark the start of an exciting new partnership which sees the Gate Theatre present dance theatre work at Sadler's Wells. Originally staged at The Gate Theatre in January 2008, I Am Falling effortlessly blends dance and text to tell a story which is at once shocking and tender, harrowing but beautiful. It explores the extremes of human emotion and the damage that can be caused by loving too much. Director Carrie Cracknell uses lighting and sound to zoom in and out of the action, leading the audience’s attention like a film camera. The narrative is presented from varying angles, allowing the characters’ stories to unfold from different perspectives simultaneously. Sadler’s Wells is delighted to offer audiences another chance to experience this unique show, which features choreography by Anna Williams and text by Jenny Worton. The remarkable on-stage world is created by Garance Marneur, with lighting by Katharine Williams and sound by Edward Lewis.

Royal Ballet of Flanders

William Forsythe’s Impressing the Czar is presented by Royal Ballet of Flanders for the first time in London at Sadler’s Wells, after receiving rapturous praise at the Edinburgh Festival in 2007. Presented in three acts with no narrative, Impressing the Czar is an intricate and surreal meditation on dance, civilisation and the human spirit, by turns both bitingly funny and deeply touching. In an inventory of references that spans the history of art and ballet since the Renaissance, Forsythe stimulates, demolishes and subsequently resurrects the dance pantheon in a whirl of theatrical imagination. Moments of opulent burlesque action are interwoven with a striking scene which features Forsythe’s world-famous in the middle, somewhat elevated. Features sumptuous designs by Férial Münnich and Michael Simon, and music by Thom Willems, Leslie Stuck, Eva Crossman-Hecht and Ludwig van Beethoven. These performances by Royal Ballet of Flanders are part of Sadlers Wells’ Focus on Forsythe 08/09.

Richard Alston

This year, Richard Alston celebrates both his sixtieth birthday and forty years of choreography with a special programme, which includes two world premieres at Sadler’s Wells and a new work created earlier in 2008 that has never been performed in London. The Men In My Life is a celebration of the remarkable work that Richard Alston has made for male dancers. The programme ranges from an early solo, Strider (1971), through to choreography originally made for such outstanding dancers as Michael Clark, Darshan Singh Bhuller and Martin Lawrance, right up to the latest dances for Jonathan Goddard, nominated this year for the Laurence Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in Dance. The programme also features the world premiere of Richard Alston’s Blow Over, co-commissioned by Sadler’s Wells and Dance Umbrella, and set to the racing pace of Philip Glass’s Songs From Liquid Days; and new to London, Shuffle It Right, inspired by the idiosyncratic and jazzy songs of Hoagy Carmichael.

The Australian Ballet Bangarra Dance Theatre

The Australian Ballet joins forces with Bangarra Dance Theatre to present the UK premiere of two works at Sadler’s Wells. For over four decades, The Australian Ballet has been the defining face of ballet in Australia, renowned for its dynamic mix of classical and contemporary dance. Here the company presents two contrasting works - Rites, a groundbreaking collaboration with Bangarra Dance Theatre, who thrilled audiences at Sadler’s Wells in 2006 with their remarkable fusion of contemporary dance and Aboriginal culture, and The Australian Ballet’s critically acclaimed Les Présages. Rites, set to Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring and choreographed by Bangarra’s Artistic Director Stephen Page, is a visually stunning production which pairs dancers from The Australian Ballet and Bangarra Dance Theatre in an electrifying meeting of indigenous Australian culture and contemporary Western dance.

Momix

American company Momix returns to the Peacock Theatre to delight audiences with artistic director Moses Pendleton’s fascinating other-worldly dance creation Lunar Sea. Step into another world where figures glow eerily as they float through the darkness – combining props, light and shadow, Momix’s Lunar Sea is a “black and white ballet” in which dancers in fluorescent costumes float and fly magically, unbound by the laws of gravity. Presented under black light and featuring projections and puppets by Michael Curry (part of the Lion King design team), Moses Pendleton’s surreal world of dance and optical illusion is an exceptionally inventive production that will enthral all ages. You’ll leave the theatre with just one question: how on earth did they do that?

Live Screen

Live Screen is a unique evening of dance in the form of film, video and performance in the Lilian Baylis Studio at Sadler’s Wells. The sixth Live Screen has a London theme, inspired by the recently-discovered 1970s film Victoria Etcetera by graphic designer Germano Facetti and photographer Paolo Gori. A unique meditation on London's Victorian and Imperial legacies, the film merges photos and graphics of public sculpture and Gustave Doré's celebrated engravings of Victorian life, creating a rich mix of photography, print, sound and spoken word. Also exploring a London theme will be Alex Reuben, a dance filmmaker and former DJ who presented a screening of his superb dance road movie Routes at Sadler’s Wells last year. Alex Reuben will show the first glimpses of his new film project, Streets of London, which explores an idea he calls 'choreogeography'. Each screening will be linked by performances of folk music written about London, sung by Lauren McCormide and Emily Portman. Live Screen will also be linked directly with the commissioned visual art displayed in the foyers of Sadler's Wells, where Nelson Crespo investigates ideas of reproduction, memory and the city through print and collage.

Dancing a fine line between high art and high camp, Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo return to the Peacock Theatre by popular demand after two hugely successfully runs in 2006. Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo have become a worldwide institution since their inception in 1974, winning the Critics’ Circle National Dance Award for Outstanding Classical Repertoire and the TMA Theatre Award for their 2006 performances at the Peacock Theatre. Dancers including Sveltlana Lofatkina, Ida Nevasayneva and Olga Supphozova present two programmes which display their extraordinary technical prowess…in size twelve pointe shoes! Programme One includes the show-stopping Swan Lake, and two works never before seen in London. For Programme Two, the Trocks present Vivaldi Suite, last performed in 1998, and Giselle (Act 2), plus the UK premiere of the underwater scene from the charming Little Humpback Horse. As the darlings of the ballet world, Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo combine a loving knowledge of classical ballet with a wicked sense of fun, displaying a startling mastery of technique that will appeal to dance aficionados and complete novices alike. The Peacock Theatre is Sadler’s Wells’ home in the West End.

Shaven haired and dressed in long flowing gowns, dancers Emanuel Gat and Roy Assaf perform with astonishing synchronicity, creating rhythmic, flowing movements that are at once masculine and elegant.Created in 2007, Through the Centre is performed by eight dancers from Emanuel Gat Dance, and set to the frantic electronic acid beats of Squarepusher.
