This is Rambert

Marking the centenary of its founding, Rambert - the United Kingdom’s longest-established and most influential contemporary dance company - presents This is Rambert, a programme that celebrates one hundred years of continuous reinvention of choreographic space, while keeping its gaze firmly fixed on the future.

Far from any retrospective intent, This is Rambert is a powerful triptych bringing together choreographic voices attuned to the language of our time. The programme features Hop(e)storm by (LA)HORDE, a tribute to dance as collective action and an invitation to reclaim space, freedom, and identity; Gallery of Consequence by Emma Evelein, presented in its European premiere, which turns the liminal space of the airport into a powerful metaphor for the choices that define us; and a new work, also receiving its European premiere, by Bobbi Jene Smith, the American choreographer and performer whose work explores the politics of human relationships and the rhythmic and formal connections between music and movement. Together, these three works speak urgently to the present, give voice to stories still unheard, and reflect the pulse and intensity of contemporary life.
