Dada Masilo’s The Sacrifice
The Guardian's best dance to book 2023
South African choreographer Dada Masilo’s new work The Sacrifice reinterprets ‘The Rite of Spring’ for a new generation of audiences.This is an unforgettable and deeply uplifting experience from one of the most exciting choreographers working in dance today
Featuring live music on stage, The Sacrifice is inspired by Igor Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring, combining the European heritage of this monumental piece of music with the uniquely rhythmic and expressive movements of ‘Tswana’ the traditional dance of Botswana.
Rooted in story-telling and healing ritual, Masilo and her dancers deliver an exhilarating performance that will transport you through a journey of emotions.
Deeply moving and astonishingly fresh
