Ben Duke, Ballet Rambert
Cerberus / Goat
A TRIBUTE TO JAZZ AND MYTHOLOGY RANGING FROM NINA SIMONE TO ORFEO ED EURYDICE HAS MUSICIANS AND SINGERS JOINING FORCES WITH TWENTY MAGNIFICENT MEMBERS OF THE CELEBRATED LONDON-BASED DANCE COMPANY.
Ben Duke, who first studied literature and theater before founding Lost Dog company, has developed an inimitable style of dance theater, adding an ever-so-British spirit to the classics, bringing poetry and humor together as seamlessly as yin and yang. It is a delight to rediscover the brilliant work Goat, inspired by Nina Simone and her incredible relationship with audiences, and then to discover Cerberus, Ben Duke’s new collaboration with Rambert in a tragi-comedy based on the story of the lovers separated by the River Styx, and the hound of Hades guarding the gates to the underworld. Here is a venture into hell that will bring shivers, tears and laughter.
