May Contemporary Dance

May Contemporary Dance Composite
Cutting edge contemporary at Sadler’s Wells this May
Jan Martens - any attempt will end in crushed bodies and shattered bones
An ensemble of seven dancers in grey shorts and tops, some with long sleeved grey tunics, are in a space with a grey background and the floor marked out with white lines, like a sports hall. They all face different directions, doing their own thing with energy and focus.

L-E-V - Chapter 3: The Brutal Journey of the Heart
Nine dancers wear full body suits matching their various skin tones, giving the impression that they’re naked, and their bodies entirely covered in delicate black tattoos of foliage and landscapes. They snuggle together in a tight line facing right, hip to hip. The dancer at the front has a red heart shape on his chest and leans back, lips pursed, as if about to kiss the dancer behind him.

A.I.M by Kyle Abraham – Requiem: Fire in the Air of the Earth
A black man with a shaved head wearing a print cotton dress steps away from us. A huge image of a moon, almost as tall as him, floats overhead. The black stage is raked with silvery lines of moonlight, and dim figures lie on the floor in the distance.
