Ivan Putrov, Men in Motion

Following the sell-out run of Ivan Putrov's Men in Motion earlier this year, the former Royal Ballet Principal returns to Sadler's Wells with an evening of works showcasing the athleticism and beauty of the male form in motion. For this exciting programme Putrov will be joined by some of the world's finest dancers including Sergei Polunin (former Royal Ballet Principal), Tim Matiakis (Royal Ballet of Denmark), Clyde Archer and Isaac Montllor (Spain's Compañía Nacional de Danza). The evening will include Nacho Duato's modern trio Remanso and a new piece choreographed by Polunin himself. Also on the bill will be Leon Jacobson's Vestris ? a solo originally choreographed in 1969 for a young Mikhail Baryshnikov after he won the International Ballet Competition in Moscow. Other highlights include Putrov's take on one of the most famous works ever created for the male dancer, Vaslav Nijinsky's L'après-midi d'un faune set to Debussy's beautiful music.
