Book tickets at Sadler's Wells Theatre
We have special offers available on tickets for Carmen La Cubana.
Bringing their research together, award-winning choreographers Cecilia Bengolea and Francois Chaignaud invited three ballerinas and dancehall specialists to join them in the exploration of song and dance where pointe shoes and trainers share the dance floor to dance and sing on equal footing. Sadler's Wells presents the UK premiere of DFS for which Bengolea travelled to Jamaica to immerse herself in Kingston's dance scene while Chaignaud studied traditional medieval vocal polyphony. The result is a modern dance piece which mixes Jamaican dance hall and medieval music.
