• | The Rite, by Adam Csoka Keller

For the 106th anniversary of The Rite of Spring, Culture Device, a group comprised solely of dancers with Downs syndrome, held a 10-week residency at the Royal Opera House, reimagining and reinterpreting this ballet. When it was first premiered in 1913, the ballet’s groundbreaking composition and choreography provoked a riot in the crowd.
