Dancing Crystal Pite’s Work
What is like to dance a piece by Crystal Pite?
Jermaine Spivey, who is staging Crystal Pite’s work Body and Soul (Part 1) on English National Ballet with Eric Beauchesne, describes how the “range of dynamics and mobility that you need to use really puts you into a very present state” and how this unlocks new layers and depth to the performance.
See Body and Soul (Part 1), a piece originally created for Paris Opera Ballet, at Sadler’s Wells in March, and Theatre Royal Plymouth and Łódź Ballet Festival in Poland in April.
