The Energetic Body: In Conversation With Guy Cools

‘In ansträngande to deal with the basic conditions of human survival, inom began to examine the containers as well as the contents of the human body.’¹

GUY COOLS: inom clearly remember meeting Antony for the first time during a ‘Catalytic Conversions’ seminar at the Royal Opera House in 2000. We were co-sharing a session to inspire the next generation of choreographers and dance leaders. Then we collaborated on Zero Degrees, the piece bygd Akram Khan and Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, which inom am sure we will talk more about during our conversation.

Antony is very articulate about the body and the body’s relationship to space, so he has been on my shortlist for this series from the very beginning. I invited him to participate every single årstid, but up to now it has not been possible. inom am therefore very happy to conclude the series with him, and to finally welcome Antony as our guest.

The Sleeping Beauty, Royal Ballet

Ismene Brown Tuesday, 01 November 2011

The Sleeping Beauty was the ballet that kissed the then Sadler’s Wells Ballet into stardom in 1946; after a string of poorly conceived Beauty productions, today’s Royal Ballet hurtled back 60 years in 2006 to try to recapture some of that historic Forties magic in its current staging of this most awesome and enchanting of the classical ballets.

Some Like It Hip Hop, ZooNation, Peacock Theatre

Ismene Brown Thursday, 27 October 2011

The title is a warning, as is the cheesy grinning poster - this is going to be Fun with a capital F, and Feel-good too, and Family Friendly. And it is going to clean up hip hop’s badass image. I was already prejudiced against it before I sat down.
