They’re 100, and they’re just getting started.
This is Rambert; now, as they’ve always been; living and breathing dance DNA; committed to putting the spotlight on voices, visions and ideas shaping our world today. Dance that’s alive with urgency, energy and relevance.
For their centenary, Rambert bring together handpicked, bite-size, high-impact works from artists with something urgent to say.
Hop(e)storm by (LA)HORDE reimagines dance as a catalyst of resistance, rhythm and resilience. This electrifying work fuses the joyful swing of lindy hop with the raw intensity of contemporary rave culture, creating a powerful physical response to themes of power, equality, and connection. Visually stripped back and kinetically explosive, Hop(e)storm is both a tribute to dance as collective action and a call to reclaim space, freedom and identity.
Gallery of Consequence from award-winning choreographer Emma Evelein turns the liminal space of the airport into a powerful metaphor for the choices that define us. Every gate becomes a sliding door, every movement a ripple of consequence. Set against a visceral soundscape and striking visual design, Rambert’s extraordinary dancers embody the emotional turbulence of decision-making: the stillness before action, the chaos of uncertainty, and the quiet moments of connection that echo long after departure. Gallery of Consequence invites audiences into a kinetic dreamscape where every step forward carries the weight of what’s left behind.
This programme captures what matters right now – a glimpse of the future from the company that has always led the way.
