Genre Opera/Dance

First Performance 09/10/2008

Closing 09/10/2008

Live Screen is a unique evening of dance in the form of film, video and performance.

The sixth Live Screen has a London theme, inspired by the recently-discovered 1970s film Victoria Etcetera by graphic designer Germano Facetti and photographer Paolo Gori. A unique meditation on London's Victorian and Imperial legacies, the film merges photos and graphics of public sculpture and Gustave Doré's celebrated engravings of Victorian life, creating a rich mix of photography, print, sound and spoken word.

Also exploring a London theme will be Alex Reuben, a dance filmmaker and former DJ who presented a screening of his superb dance road movie Routes at Sadler’s Wells last year. Alex Reuben will show the first glimpses of his new film project, Streets of London, which explores an idea he calls 'choreogeography'.

Each screening will be linked by performances of folk music written about London, sung by Lauren McCormide and Emily Portman.

Live Screen will also be linked directly with the commissioned visual art displayed in the foyers of Sadler's Wells, where Nelson Crespo investigates ideas of reproduction, memory and the city through print and collage.
