One of Rambert’s most celebrated works returns to Sadler’s Wells for the first time in 14 years. Ghost Dancers stalk the stage in Christopher Bruce’s masterpiece, created as a tribute to victims of oppression in South America. Day of the Dead celebrations and Latin American folk music drive dances full of joy, sadness and compassion.
Also in this triple bill (evening performances only), Didy Veldman reveals the tale of passion and betrayal behind one of Picasso’s greatest paintings in The 3 Dancers.
