David Sawer Rumpelstiltskin: A grotesque fable for our times
Birming ham Contemporary Music Group
Martyn Brabbins conductor
The thrilling Brothers Grimm tale of greed and come-uppance, with its age-old themes of transformation, ritual and revelation, told as you've never heard it before through dance, action and music alone.
This world premiere tour of Rumpelstiltskin is created by the internationally renowned David Sawer (composer), Richard Jones (director) and Stewart Laing (designer) and performed by 6 dancers and Birmingham Contemporary Music Group, conducted by Martyn Brabbins.
Produced by hcmf// in association with BCMG and Tramway Glasgow; commissioned through BCMG's Sound Investment Scheme; supported by The National Lottery through Arts Council England, Britten-Pears Foundation, John Feeney Charitable Trust, The Garrick Charitable Trust, PRS Foundation - Scottish Arts Council - Esmée Fairbairn Foundation Joint Commissioning Scheme, RVW Trust and Ernst Von Siemens Musikstiftung; also supported by British Council
Sally Marie has sadly had to withdraw from the role of Rumpelstiltskin at short notice. We are very grateful to Sarah Fahie for taking over the role for the Birmingham performances, and to Lucy Burge for the performances in Glasgow and Huddersfield.
