The Rambert School was founded by Marie Rambert in 1920. It is recognised internationally at the highest level for its teaching of dance technique, choreography and research. Here, the school presents a special programme of ballet and contemporary dance.

Contemporary dance is represented first by Robert Cohan’s seminal ‘Forest’, a work choreographed by Cohan for his legendary London Contemporary Dance Theatre in 1977.

Also featured is ‘Haida Quest’, a work by the school’s director, Ross McKim, which features live music by Barry Ganberg, and ‘Eternal Light’ by Mark Baldwin.

As with all Rambert School programmes, there will be further contemporary and ballet works created by students. Ballet will also be represented by selections from ‘La Sylphide’ staged by Paul Melis and Hilary Clark.

While studying in London, Laura Cristea is supported by the Ratiu Foundation.
