DANCE REFLECTIONS BY VAN CLEEF & ARPELS FESTIVAL : ‘DANCE’  BY LUCINDA CHILDS & PHILIP GLASS

Interpreted by 17 dancers slipping, jumping and twirling, the dance explores the repetitive and progressively shifting patterns of the score. Dance and music form a flow into which, in the words of Lucinda Childs, you want to “slip into”. Film plays an important part in this work. The seduction is amplified by the screening of the original Sol LeWitt film, thus producing a hypnotic split between stage and background. Dance is in every sense of the word, a delight. Lucinda Childs, co-founder of the Judson Dance Theater became known in 1976 through her collaboration on the opera Einstein on the Beach by Robert Wilson and Philip Glass. Dance was, however, her first major show, and never did a piece so well deserve its title. Lyon Opera Ballet has been regular visitors to Sadler’s Wells and we are delighted to welcome back the company for this special event.

 

Please note that there is a fee of £37 for this event. Partners are welcome to join.
