Guild Hall William P. Rayner Artist-in-Residence Robbie Fairchild shares an in-process presentation of his new dance-theater work, Lord Chamberlain’s Men.

Lord Chamberlain’s Men is a dance-theater work inspired by Shakespeare’s sonnets and the origin story of Romeo & Juliet; engaging themes of identity, forbidden love, and sexual longing that resonate throughout Shakespeare’s writing. Created in collaboration with co-director and choreographer Sonya Tayeh and creative producer Christopher Wheeldon, the work combines movement, text, and electro-acoustic music to build a theatrical landscape where storytelling and choreography intersect.

The in-process presentation will be followed by a conversation with the artists about the development of the work and their collaborative process.
