Seasons Dance: A Rave Through Life's Stages

A new dance production at London's Regent's Park Open Air Theatre offers a unique exploration of life's journey through the seasons. The performance features a cast whose ages range from youth to older adulthood, interpreting a reimagined Vivaldi's Four Seasons.

Choreographed by Alexzandra Sarmiento, the dance incorporates a cast of trios, each representing different stages of life. These groups, visually distinct in blue, pink, and orange, are intended to symbolize the head, heart, and gut, although this conceptual layering isn't always clear within the movement itself. While the piece aims to showcase a wide spectrum of talent, its blended approach results in a general movement style influenced by street dance.
