In order to remain so, and to support its students (given the demands they must confront), Rambert School provides a contained, bordered and protected environment through which an unusual and intense level of energy and professionalism is created, respected, treasured and sustained. “Rambert School is a place of education and training in Ballet, Contemporary Dance and Choreography. It seeks to cause or allow each student to achieve his or her unique potential personally and professionally. It encourages learning, reflection, research and creative discovery. Through these processes, as they relate to performance dance, all those at the school are provided with the opportunity to develop their vision, awareness, knowledge and insight into the world and the self.

By being in the audience, you are not only supporting the visiting artists who have brought their work to Nashville for this rare occasion, you are also supporting the growth of contemporary art in this region. We thank you for your continued support. We are exceptionally lucky and very proud to have with us this evening, one of the worlds’ most inspiring choreographic minds, Wayne McGregor. An artist who emphasizes collaboration and a wide range of perspectives in his creative process, McGregor brings his own brilliant intellect and painterly vision to life in each of his works. In FAR, we witness the mind and body as interconnected forces; distorted and sensual within the same frame. As ten stunning dancers hyperextend and crouch, rapidly moving through light and shadow to a mesmerizing score, the relationship between imagination and movement becomes each viewer’s own interpretation. An acronym for Flesh in the Age of Reason, McGregor’s FAR investigates self-understanding and exemplifies the theme from Roy Porter’s novel by the same name, “that we outlive our mortal existence most enduringly in the ideas we leave behind.” Strap in.
