SUMMARY:The Car Man
LOCATION:Sadler's Wells Theatre\, EC1R 4TN
DESCRIPTION:Fasten your seat belts… Matthew Bourne ’s award-winning The Car Man is back! Loosely based on Bizet’s ever-popular opera\, The Car Man has one of the most thrilling and instantly recognisable scores in New Adventures’ repertoire. The familiar 19th Century Spanish cigarette factory becomes a greasy 1950s garage-diner in the American Mid-West where the dreams and passions of a small-town are shattered by the arrival of a handsome and enigmatic stranger. Fuelled by heat and desire\, the inhabitants are driven into an unstoppable spiral of greed\, lust\, betrayal and revenge. Matthew Bourne’s vivid storytelling combines with one of the most passionately dramatic scores ever written\, with music by Terry Davies featuring Rodion Shchedrin ’s Carmen Suite (after Bizet’s Carmen)\, to create a dance thriller like no other. The Car Man will ignite your senses and leave you breathless. Header image description: A set in reds\, oranges and greys. It looks like a run down area\, including a garage\, a bar and grill with the shutters down and a diner. Infront of it is a large group of dancers\, all mid jump with their knees tucked in and their arms flying behind them.
