Sadler's Wells announces its early 2024 season, with Crystal Pite, Wayne McGregor, and an octopus

Sadler's Wells has announced its new season of work for the first half of 2024, including a UK premiere by Dimitris Papaioannou featuring hundreds of litres of water, a golden field of wheat and an octopus – of course – plus the UK premiere of the latest work by Crystal Pite and Jonathon Young, and a revival of Ray Young's award-winning duet OUT, which challenges homophobia and transphobia, while reclaiming dancehall and celebrating vogue culture.

They appear in a rich season encompassing contemporary, flamenco, hip hop, kathak, Latin, ballet and dance theatre productions, including three world premieres, seven UK premieres and six Sadler’s Wells co-productions.
