Rambert Dance Company

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Rambert Dance Company

British modern-dance company, founded as the Ballet Rambert by Marie Rambert in 1926. In 1966 she handed the direction over to her protégé Norman Morrice (1931– ), who began the process of transforming the company into one more focused on new creations and modern work. Richard Alston was appointed artistic director in 1986 and changed the company name to Rambert Dance Company in 1987. The company was relaunched on an expanded scale in 1994 under the direction of Christopher Bruce, working from a more ‘classical’ contemporary base.

During Morrice's tenure, seminal work was created for the company by the US choreographer Glen Tetley, among others.
