Pina
Bausch: Café Muller/The Rite of Spring
The massively influential German expressionist choreographer,
Pina Bausch, and her Tanztheater Wuppertal company are resurrecting
two exceptional, early works for Sadler's Wells. The first piece,
Café Muller, continues to star Bausch, now in her late sixties,
in an intensely personal offering, wrought with anxiety and
unspoken frustration. The second, The Rite of Spring, is an
aptly renowned adaptation of Stravinsky's Le Sacre du Printemps,
drenched in ritual, rawness and elemental force. Combined, the
double-bill offers a rare and uniquely impressive insight into
the origins of this dynamic choreographer and the style of dance
that she created. |
