Drumming is one of Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker’s most fascinating works: a ravishing dance set to a powerful percussion score by Steve Reich. This ground-breaking collaboration with Candoco Dance Company, a world-leading company of disabled and non-disabled dancers, will explore the rich creative potential when a piece of seminal dance repertoire is reimagined through an inclusive lens. De Keersmaeker has outlined her curiosity in revisiting her original choreographic intentions for this work and how, by working with a company of 12 performers with diverse bodies, new iterations and meanings might emerge. Drumming will have its UK premiere at Sadler’s Wells in October 2022.
