Phoenix Dance Theatre: The Rite of Spring & Left Unseen
Synopsis
For his first work created in the UK, Haitian choreographer Jeanguy Saintus re-envisions The Rite of Spring introducing the sacred arts of Haiti along with contemporary global issues in his bold approach to the near riot-causing original by Vaslav Nijinsky.
Performed alongside The Rite of Spring is Amaury Lebrun‘s Left Unseen which explores inclusion and isolation and how we rely on our five senses to find our place and navigate the world. In isolation there is often stillness and silence and also unpredictable disturbance and chaos. The eight dancers embody these different states creating an aesthetically beautiful and emotive piece of dance.
