Sadler's Wells

Irish choreographer and director Michael Keegan-Dolan returns to the stage for the first time in 20 years—following acclaimed New York presentations of his works Swan Lake/Loch na hEala (in 2019) and Rian (in 2012)—joined by longtime collaborator, “dazzling dancer” Rachel Poirier (The Guardian). A delicious soundtrack of Stravinsky, Men Without Hats, Talking Heads and more drives this playful and provocative coming-of-age story about a life spent in dance. “So strong, you’ll dance while sitting still” (The Arts Review).

Bringing together modern dance and the ancient heartbeat of Ireland.

Described as “90 minutes of ritualised ecstasy” by The Irish Times, this visionary piece playfully and provocatively takes you on an otherworldly journey steeped in the landscape and culture of West Kerry in Ireland.

MÁM sees 12 fearless dancers summon a whirlwind of myth and magic, moved by the collaborative music making of virtuoso Irish traditional concertina player Cormac Begley and European classical contemporary collective s t a r g a z e, performed live on stage.
