17c An intriguing romp through the bracingly 5 frank diaries of Samuel Pepys, the Londoner who danced, sang, strode, aspired, bullied and groped his way through 17th century life, recording every detail for posterity. Big Dance Theater layers movement, text, music and video into a century-spanning work that reveals this Baroque hipster’s compulsions as a startling precursor to our own social media-obsessed times. Pulling the past into the present, Big Dance revives the lost voices of Bess Pepys and her contemporary, the radical feminist playwright Margaret Cavendish. From periwigs to lamé, historical literature to contemporary blogs, 17c comes from a New York City ensemble renowned for their maverick approach to classical material, in this their first visit to London.

“A total work of art in which all the elements come together perfectly” Theaterkant

KOKERS Cardboard tubes, playful choreography and 9 percussive sound combine to form a show perfect for both the young and the young-at-heart. In KoKERS inventive landscapes are built and broken apart as the dancers balance, flip, throw, twirl and jump around the playground they have created. In this satisfyingly simple performance, the dancers soon realise that the most fun is to be found when they combine forces. Gaia Gonnelli, Artistic Director of Dutch company Dadodans, is well known for her ambitious and spirited work that encourages children to use their own imaginations. The performance ends with the young audience being invited onstage to play among props that can easily be recreated at home.

“A figurehead of China’s contemporary dance scene” Le Monde Wen Hui

RED Armed with guns, wearing pointe shoes, the all- 11 female fighters of The Red Detachment of Women came to symbolise part of Mao’s communist dream. As one of only eight permissible theatrical works of the time, the 1964 ballet was seen over and over by the Chinese. Choreographer Wen Hui threads extracts, interviews and anecdotal material from original cast members into a dramatic documentary performance that goes beyond the ballet and official Cultural Revolution records. With projected film as a backdrop, she and three other dancers use their bodies as archives, their gestures illustrating stories and evoking memories, in this multi-generational response to this memorable period of history. The Beijing-based artist makes her first UK visit in ten years with Dance Umbrella.

THE GREAT TAMER Dimitris Papaioannou returns to Dance 17 Umbrella with his enigmatic exploration of life in The Great Tamer, an elemental yet epic production that seduces the imagination with scenes of birth, death, destruction and reconstruction. In a dreamlike universe between illusion and reality human bodies distort and unite, raw materials take flight, hidden objects emerge from the ground, uncovered in feats of simple invention. Paying homage to the Old Masters Papaioannou draws on his roots in the fine arts, his Greek heritage and the history of humankind to create a witty and surreal feast of visual delights. An artist whose work spans theatre, dance and film Papaioannou first attracted recognition for directing the ceremonies of the 2004 Olympics. This internationally acclaimed work marks his debut at Sadler’s Wells.

CONCERT Two artists united by a deep appreciation 19 of tradition yet compelled by their desire to break it apart: Colin Dunne takes on the ‘undanceable’ music of the enigmatic fiddle player Tommie Potts (1912–1988). Armed with a turntable, portable speakers and sheets of flooring, Dunne enters into a creative dialogue with The Liffey Banks (1972). This rhythmically deviant, melodically resplendent album presents a singular challenge to Irish dance’s most celebrated contemporary artist, as he responds physically and percussively to Potts’ irregular, richly textured tunes. Created in collaboration with director Sinéad Rushe and composer/sound designer Mel Mercier, Concert sees Dunne draw on his extraordinary technique and deep engagement with the music to illuminate it afresh in a negotiation of old and new.

THRESHOLD Effortlessly engaging, their exhilarating movement 21 characterised by pure invention, the quintet of Le Patin Libre defy every convention of figure skating to evolve a new dance form–on ice. In Threshold the charismatic ensemble experiments with the choreographic possibilities of ‘the glide’–a state that allows the body to travel at speed through space, without moving. Playing with contrast and change, they zoom towards viewers seated on the ice, combining athletic virtuosity with joyous physicality. The Montreal-based company last wowed London audiences in Dance Umbrella 2014 with their award-winning Vertical Influences (recently seen on BBC2). Dance Umbrella brings the collective’s latest show to the capital, with another adrenalin-fuelled performance of gravity-defying grace and danger.
