This season Sadler’s Wells Creative Learning department, Connect produces a new production for the main stage, inspired by London’s diversity in its Olympic year.
A compelling new work premiering on Monday 23 April, Compass brings together a team of choreographers, a writer, a film maker, composers and musicians with a cast of over 100 dancers, encompassing all ages and levels of experience.
An original score of live and recorded vocal and instrumental music, by composers Donna McKevitt and Hannah Peel, is accompanied by arresting visual imagery created by BAFTA winner Tal Rosner. The company combine their talents and draw on their rich cultural heritage to create a thought provoking performance, exploring themes that celebrate unity, diversity and the meaning of ‘home’ within the many worlds of our capital city.
