SIR WAYNE MCGREGOR’S DEEPSTARIA MADE ITS UK PREMIERE AT SADLER’S WELLS.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Thursday, February 27, to Sunday, March 2, Deepstaria<\/a> was performed at Sadler’s Wells Theatre<\/a>, including a post-show talk on Thursday with Wayne McGregor and Alistair Spalding, Artistic Director, and Co-Chief Executive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deepstaria offered the audience a meditative, pure dance and sound experience inspired by the deep sea’s shape-shifting life and an enigmatic jellyfish species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The New York Times named it as \u201cOne of the Best Dance Performances of 2024\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wayne McGregor chose Harlequin Hi-Shine<\/a>\u2122 Black performance vinyl floor to create a vibrant and unique stage production. By utilizing Vantablack technology on stage, McGregor and the set designers, Benjamin Males and Theresa Baumgartner created ‘unfathomable darkness that disturbs traditional hierarchies of perception.’<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“In Deepstaria, we wanted to create an environment that disturbs traditional hierarchies of perception, a reflective void of unfathomable darkness. Harlequin Hi-Shine\u2122 plays an extraordinary role in this shifting of the senses,” Sir Wayne McGregor, Choreographer and Director.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deepstaria had its world premiere on June 22, 2024, at the Montpellier Dance Festival before touring to the Spoleto Festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now that it has premiered in London, McGregor plans to continue showcasing Deepstaria<\/em> around the world over the following four years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
