Announcing a new tour starting in April 2016, the BalletBoyz will premier their production of Life at London’s Sadler Wells. Following a UK tour after opening in London, the crew around the new commissions by Javier de Frutos and Pointus Lidberg will continue touring, embarking a tour of the US in 2017.
After premiering in London, the piece will be shown in Oxford, Exeter, Edinburgh and other British cities; the full listing can be found below. The piece is co-produced y Sadler’s Wells in association with artsdepot. The inimitable style of the all-male dance crew takes a provocative look at life, creating a fascinating program with an elegant and powerful, original score. One of the new commissions, Javier de Frutos said that he was thrilled to be working with the crew of BalletBoyz again. The topic of LIFE in the piece that comes with the inevitable death is an “intoxicating cocktail”, as he describes it, which is brought by an exquisite dance crew. “I am looking forward to the exhilarating experience that it is creating work with them!”, de Frutos added. The choreographer was trained at the London School of Contemporary Dance and at the Merce Cunningham School in New York. He lately choreographed Everyman for the National Theatre. Pontus Lidberg, explained that he was truly exited to be creating a piece for one of the world’s most forward thinking dance companies. Lidberg has created more than 40 works for companies all over the world and is now working side-by-side with de Frutos to make the Life production unforgettable.
