Nitin Sawhney's album Dystopian Dream premiered in 2015, and now Sawhney along with Honji Wang and Sébastien Ramirez (Wang Ramirez) have devised an interpretation of Dystopian Dream which combines choreography, live music and animated projections into a full length evening event which debuts at Sadlers Wells on 27 November 2018. Performed by Wang Ramirez and singer Eva Stone, the production features costumes by Hussein Chalayan, lighting by Natasha Chivers, set by Shizuka Hariu and animated projections by Nick Hillel. Examining the themes of loss, continuity and isolation, the evening will merge Sawhner's score, performed live, with Wang Ramirez' extremely physical, hip hop-influenced choreography.
A Sadler's Wells associate artists since 2010, Nitin Sawhney's work in the theatre has included the scores for Complicité’s A Disappearing Number and Akram Khan’s zero degrees.
Full details from the Sadlers Wells website.
