Brave

It all started with a question.

At what point do you need to stand out from the crowd, and at what point do you desperately want to blend in?

In this short film Brave a group of 16 to 19 year olds bare their souls with their own creative responses.

Through spoken word, poetry and dance, they make their voices heard and confront the world around them and within them.

It’s personal, it’s political, and it’s brave.

You have to have heart,
to wake up and start,
but I know you understand that,
cause I guess we all deal with that part
– Augustine Shaw, from Brave

Brave is the culmination of Rambert’s Future Movement, a fresh youth skills development project, which was launched in a collaboration with Theatre Peckham in September 2021.

A life in a day… as a Rambert dancer

Meet Aishwarya Raut

Introducing Rambert dancer Aishwarya Raut

Aishwarya comes to Rambert via Bollywood and Rambert2. She does not want you to call her “awesome”. But we think she is.

Take a Contemporary Fusion class with Aishwarya, or watch her in the short film Goldfish.
