Tomorrow inhabits the murderous world of Macbeth. Building on her recent, landmark production of the play (co-directed with Carrie Cracknell), Lucy Guerin’s dance work gives physical life to the psychological conflict that led a man to murder. With original music by electronica artist Scanner.
The mystery of the unknown that inspired ancient explorers infuses Shobana Jeyasingh’s Terra Incognita. This is a dance journey propelled by Gabriel Prokofiev’s driving score, full of intricately detailed movement, surprising twists and turns, and intriguing discoveries.
- "One of Shobana Jeyasingh’s best works"
- The Guardian
At the heart of this programme is Rambert’s party piece. Itzik Galili’s A Linha Curva is a spectacular, sexy, percussion-fuelled explosion of samba-flavoured dance, and helped the company win the 2010 Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in Dance.
Tomorrow is developed from Lucy Guerin and Carrie Cracknell’s Macbeth, a Young Vic/Birmingham Repertory Theatre/HOME co-production, in association with Lucy Guerin Inc. Its original development was supported by the Jerwood Studio at Sadler’s Wells. The work is part of Shakespeare 400 celebrations.
“Twenty-eight dancers pumping limbs like athletes, heavy-duty percussion exciting the blood, dramatic lighting effects and a whole lot of energy. Who can resist?”
