 | | Pina Bausch’s ‘The Rite of Spring’ danced in an extraordinary setting | Picture this: 38 dancers from 14 African countries, rehearsing their long-awaited production of Pina Bausch’s world-famous 1975 work, ‘The Rite of Spring’. Then, just days before the premiere, lockdown hits. Instead of disbanding, they created something awe-inspiring: they filmed their final rehearsal on a beach in Toubab Dialaw in Senegal, at dusk.
The results are stunning. Right now, you can watch ‘Dancing at Dusk – A moment with Pina Bausch’s The Rite of Spring’ on Sadler’s Wells Digital Stage. It’s a super-rare opportunity to watch one of the finest dance works ever created, in an incredible setting. If you haven’t caught any of the digital works presented by Sadler’s Wells (London’s most famous dance theatre) during lockdown, then make it this one.
‘Dancing at Dusk– A moment with Pina Bausch’s The Rite of Spring’ is available to watch on demand until July 31, for £5.
