The Pearl Fishers (Les Pêcheurs de Perles)
	

	







A thrilling tale of friendship tested by love, set on an exotic isle in an eastern sea, Bizet’s early masterpiece is a gem of 19th-century French opera, full of fabulous tunes, colourful orchestration and evocative choruses. The opera offers audiences a rare chance to discover what a pearl of a piece Bizet’s opera can be.

As part of Andrews work as moment director he choreographed the overture that features 3 Aerialist (divers) swimming down to fish for pearls.





"...A breathtaking opening sequence of pearl divers in the watery depths."- The New Yorker

Doctor Atomic


	

	




John Adams’s contemporary masterpiece explores a momentous episode of modern history: the creation of the atomic bomb. Director Penny Woolcock makes her Met debut with this gripping story that changed the course of history. Baritone Gerald Finley, above, plays J. Robert Oppenheimer, the title character.

Andrew made his Choreographic Debut at the Metropolitan Opera, New York with Dr Atomic in October 2008.

“If a work forces you, simultaneously and uncomfortably, to clench your limbs and hold your breath, you have to take notice… If the earth didn’t move for you, it did for me.”
– The Observer

Amnesia Curiosa


	

	




“I keep inside myself, in my private museum, everything I have seen and loved in my life” – Andre Malraux

Geoff Sobelle and Trey Lyford unearth a museum of absence and artifact where the paranormal is normal and the line between docent and exhibit becomes increasingly blurred. Drawing from the esoteric worlds of 19th Century pseudo-science, medical anomaly, spiritualism, and the occult, Amnesia Curiosa is a surgical séance, exhuming a repository of familial ghosts, memory, and wonder.
Amnesia Curiosa was performed atop the historic Pennsylvania Hospital in the oldest surgical amphitheater in the U.S. 

 

“Watching “Amnesia Curiosa” inspires an off-kilter state of mind. The performance group rainpan 43 creates a droll, deadpan scientific mood that makes the audience happy to be served banana slices on toothpicks while making believe they’re tasting brains.” – Washington post

Pandora 88
	

	


A “box”, barely 1.5sq meters encapsulates the shared experiences and life paths of the two performers. It is their playground, home, prison, and their sanctuary, source of light, sound and memories. A place where their lives start and finish, to which they’re bound for better or worse. Within this confined space the two performers are forced to concentrate on the freedom that comes from within.

Wolfgang Hoffmann and Sven Till explore the boundaries of dance and theatre in this intense and moving piece inspired both by Brian Keenan’s book “An Evil Cradling” and Stanley Kubrick’s film “2001 A Space Odyssey”. With intense imagery and heroic adventures they slip from comedy to tragedy and back again with a brief detour through outer space.

“Male duets are not uncommon in contemporary dance, but this pair push the boundaries emotionally as well as physically. Their embraces move from manacles to games, wrestling holds, reassurance and intimate respect. It’s a gripping piece.”

– Jan Parry, The Observer

The Idiot Colony


	

	Three women have spent decades wandering the wards and corridors of ‘The Idiot Colony’ Locked away for their illicit loves; they relive their faltering memories amidst the drugs, brutality and restraints of the asylum

The only respite is the hospitals hairdressing salon. In this haven of intimacy they find endings to stories they have waited so long to tell.





“Luminous to look at, as the three women sway back and forth between the litheness of youth and the dashed hopes of old age. A particularly ravishing sequence involving a wet towel makes you think of swimming under a waterfall.”


– The Guardian

The Nest
	

	


Parents-to-be Kurt and Martha just want the best for their baby. They’re not afraid of hard work – the latest buggy doesn’t come cheap. But when Kurt’s boss offers him a chance to make some easy money with a mysterious side job, his rashness catches up with him.

 

“Yet the smallest of touches reach the heart. The baby is never seen; he is just a presence suggested by the cup of his mother’s hands, the careful way she folds a plaid rug around an empty space. As if to say: love is not something you find; you create it.”

– The Observer


★★★★ “Tender, ominous and powerfully watchable”

– The Sunday Times
