Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Company Wayne McGregor

Wayne McGregor schafft eine anspruchsvolle Choreographie, die subtil an Geschwindigkeit und Intensität aufnimmt und klassische Posen mit nervösen Zuckungen kombiniert.

A visually striking and thought-provoking work requiring continual concentration to absorb.

Extraordinary dancers performing extraordinary movement, but the noise was too invasive. 

Outstanding dance, right up there in the top drawer of McGregor’s choreography, but would have been better seen in a less accessorised state.

Every decade or so, The Royal Ballet creates a new work that will endure in its signature collection, and there's little doubt that Woolf Works deserves its place among that elite.   

At Edinburgh’s Festival Theatre, Wayne McGregor explores what it means to have a life story in Autobiography for the Edinburgh International Festival.

Wayne McGregor brings Cunningham-esque chance back to dance in this innovative and challenging production in which every show will be different 

There’s always this hazard in self-produced works: you operate in a bubble where no one tells you that you need to look more outward and less inward.

Wayne McGregor’s new dance work explores the relation between human bodies and technology as part of his curated installation +/- Human.

McGregor delivers a mighty concept through strong leadership and teamwork; creating art, through movement, that possesses both complexity and depth, yet unfolds with arresting clarity.  

Wayne McGregor est de retour à l’Opéra de Paris pour présenter Tree of Codes, en collaboration avec le compositeur électro Jamie xx et le plasticien Olafur Eliasson. Mais aussi sympathique soit-elle à voir, la chorégraphie ne propose pas grand-chose d’autre que son caractère branché, purement décoratif, en fait de concept artistique.  

The Sadler’s Wells Sampled evening had the whole building buzzing and dancing with a show of bite size dance appetisers for all tastes and also includes several extra activities.

Tree of Codes opens at the Park Avenue Armory in New York - a collaboration between Wayne McGregor, Olafur Eliasson and Jamie xx.

An interminable evening of self-regarding narcissism doesn't bode well for the supposed future of classical music: luckily, other options are available. 

Choreographer Wayne McGregor, music producer Jamie XX and artist Olafur Eliasson fill in Foer's gaps, in a performance of Tree of Codes that brings Random dance and Paris Opera corps and principal dancers together on stage, at the Manchester International Festival.

Wayne McGregor's Random Dance unites science and dance in Atomos at The Laban Theatre, London. 

Wayne McGregor astounds with his choreographic virtuosity, entrancing soundtrack and mesmerizing set design in FAR: this postmodern look at the body creates a veritable lexicon of movement. At Théâtre Maisonneuve, Montréal.

Grids are the visual design motif of Wayne McGregor’s Atomos, which world premièred this past week at Sadler’s Wells. The 65-minute ballet opens with its ten dancers in a square of light downstage right.

I was fortunate to see Wayne McGregor’s choreography set on the San Francisco Ballet several years back, so I was eager to see Random Works, which was performed this past weekend in Kings Place’s Hall One. Random Works wasn’t McGregor’s choreography, but rather the work of ten young choreographers. McGregor is listed as the programme’s curator.

FAR stands for Flesh in the Age of Reason, the title of Roy Porter’s last, magisterial work (tagline: “How the Enlightenment transformed the way we see our bodies and souls”). Porter’s book is a history of the relationship between flesh and spirit in the 18th century.

A Celebration of Bob Lockyer was less a celebration of the man than of his work. Lockyer has had a full career ranging from producer of award-winning dance programmes at the BBC, to chair of Dance UK and South-East Dance. His lengthy career has earned him the accolade of “one of the great heroes of British dance”.

Wayne McGregor is a rare talent. Supremely intelligent and creative, he has forged a new language of dance, one which is uncompromising and always challenging, especially when he works with his own company Random Dance.
