Inspired by one of the great passions of the modern age, Shoes explores the gamut of footwear, from the highs of the Louboutin to the lows of the croc. Composed by Richard Thomas, in his first large-scale production since the legendary West End and Broadway hit Jerry Springer - The Opera, and featuring the work of a team of leading choreographers, Shoes is a dance revue that sees life told from street-level perspective with wit, irreverence and affection.

 

Shoes features choreography and direction by multi-award winning Stephen Mear (Mary Poppins, Sweet Charity, The Little Mermaid), acclaimed as “the best showbiz choreographer we have” (Guardian). Alongside Mear, Sadler’s Wells has invited leading choreographers Aletta Collins (Bloom, The Tempest, Jesus Christ Superstar) Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui (zero degrees, Sutra) and Kate Prince (Into the Hoods) to create dance numbers inspired by Thomas’s songs.

 

Featuring a cast of 12 dancers, four singers, including Australian singing sensation Kate Miller-Heidke and Olivier Award nominee Alison Jiear, and a live band, the show also includes films by artist and music video director Tim Hope (videos for Coldplay and R.E.M and projections for The Mighty Boosh UK tour).

Akram Khan & Nitin Sawhney (Confluence)

Booking 20 July 2010 to 24 July 2010

The booking process is provided by LondonTheatreDirect.com and booking fees may apply.

Confluence, the celebrated collaborative production by Akram Khan and Nitin Sawhney premiered on 26th November 2009 as the culmination of the Svapnagata India Festival, presented by Sadler's Wells. Confluence fuses Sawhney's music with Khan's unique blend of classical kathak and contemporary technique.

The artists write about the work: "All artistic collaboration is a suspension of ego, a meeting of spirits, a spontaneous collision, but most of all, a search for an indefinable spark - an inspirational sense of connection from which ideas, thoughts and feelings can emerge."

 

Exploring how the independent stories of these two kindred spirits converged, Confluence offers the opportunity to re-visit their collaborative work together (Kaash, zero degrees and bahok), but it is more than simply a retrospective of their previous pieces. It is an exploration of the nature and fabric of creativity itself.
