THE RITE OF SPRING
Southbank Centre's Purcell Room. Thu 23 > Sat 25 Jan. London Premiere
Gripping dance-theatre that explores the eternal cycle of life and death. Drawing inspiration from art history and animal behaviour, this innovative, contemporary company reimagines Stravinsky's revolutionary work with raw and primal energy.
In Dewey Dell’s interpretation the mystery of Spring unfolds in a fierce conflict between sound and vision. In addition to Stravinsky’s powerful score it features an additional soundscape prologue and epilogue curated by Domenico Castellucci exclusively for this production, producing a fresh perspective on a timeless masterpiece.

“Divertingly weird”
“This new version by Teodora Castellucci reactivates the strength of this masterpiece, with the powerful seduction of the original music mixed with Demetrio Castellucci’s soundscape and the performers’ furious energy”
