I was fortunate enough to be an audience member for the Rambert Company's most recent performance at Sadler's Wells.

What a fab.programme and wonderful dancers. An absolutely BLINDING show, wonderful spirit and technique and amazing physicality.

This was the best evening of dance that I have seen in a very long time, and the dancers deserved the audience response.

Thank you.

It was a wonderful experience, great spectacle.
Primitive elegance; beauty of scupted bodies and movement in harmony; energy and fun in synergy. we would like to see more and more.

We loved the show at Sadler's Wells. Brilliant dancing as ever, but Hush and A Linha Curva were particularly exciting. Hush had the form and content which is not always so apparent in more abstract works, while A Linha Curva was so exuberant...left us wanting more. Can't wait to see these dances again. We are never disappointed with Rambert. Well done, and it was lovely to see some Christopher Bruce choreography again.

400# Inspiring

I am a philistine; I read little, don't enjoy the theatre, and force myself to go to art galleries. I prefer walking fells and riding bikes up the Alpes. But Rambert is so brilliant. I loved your Spring show at Sadler's Wells, as I did the one before. The interaction betwixt music, movement, colours, and the human form is new, invigorating and always a treat. Thank you. I can't wait for the next! Thank you.

I LOVE IT!
As a 14year old dancer, these three pieces were an inspiration to me. I loved the last piece the best, and have reccomended it to all my friends! Will definatly go to their next show when they are in London :-D
Well done

394# 16th May Matinee.

I thoroughly enjoyed the performance and was inspired by the incredible versatility the Rambert Dancers' have.

The brazillian influenced 'A linha Curva' was carnival like and energetic, engaging the audience around me. The 'rainbow' lighting enhanced the athletic choreography and made a huge impact.

'Hush' was another piece of beautiful choreography by Christopher Bruce, his innovative movement vocabulary was amazing and tyed in and out of the music successfully. The music by Bobby McFerrin and Yo-yo man really added to the performance and communication of the characters within the 'family' on stage.

Brilliant work yet again Rambert Company and from the students that performed!

391# Exquisite performance Rambert

By Natasha Pettersson on Sun, 17 May 2009 at 05:24:52 PM

Rambert Dance Company showed their diversity and exquisite technical nature on Thursday evening. This season showed the dancers in some enthralling and entertaining choreography that pushed them and showcased their talents as artists.

Hush is a warm piece that is an excellent display of playful choreography that successfully achieves the choreographers intent of exploring the journey and celebration of life from young to old, appealing to all ages alike.

Scribblings, is a tense piece that uses the avant garde intrumental music in a unique way as the dancers carry themselves across the stage in a constant pattern of fast movements that flashes quickly before the eyes in a visual representation of the highs and lows of the music.

A Linha Curva, is an alive piece that uses a fusion of braziallian ideas and contemporary dance in a big scale performance that is an abundance of energy and accurate timing that is spectacularly highlighted by the fantastic lighting and live music.

Hush was good and subtle modern dance. Scribblings was certainly athletic but for little purpose. A Linha Curva was too repetitive and was saved by some excellent lighting. Rambert , you can do better.
