Join The Royal Ballet as they rehearse Crystal Pite's The Statement and Solo Echo, part of the Company's 21st Century Choreographers programme, which will be livestreamed on 28 May 2021: https://stream.roh.org.uk/products/21...

Following the Olivier award-winning success of her poignant Flight Pattern, the extraordinary imagination of Canadian choreographer Crystal Pite is demonstrated again in two works created for Nederlands Dans Theater and performed for the first time by The Royal Ballet. The shadowy depths of human nature and boardroom politics are explored in the riveting dance-drama of The Statement contrasted with an atmospheric evocation of winter in Solo Echo, inspired by a poem by Mark Strand and the melancholy beauty of Brahms’s sonatas for cello and piano.
