OUR RE-OPENING YEAR WAS A ROLLERCOASTER!

One year ago today, Sadler’s Wells opened its doors again after lockdown.

Sadler’s Wells’ one year re-opening anniversary since the COVID lockdown

For many of us, art was a chance to escape the everyday and celebrate human creativity and resilience.  

Sadler’s Wells Artistic Director & Chief Executive Alistair Spalding and Executive Director Britannia Morton share a letter:  

Dear Sadler’s Wells audience, 

Remember lockdown?  

A year ago today, Sadler’s Wells re-opened after the pandemic which impacted our industry, our artists and our audiences. What a year! 

This week, we went on sale for 27 amazingly diverse new shows and we take a pause and give thanks to all our teams, the companies, artists, audiences and supporters. It’s a signal that we made it through the toughest challenges we’ve faced in our long history, that we are back at full strength on all our stages, and that more than ever, we believe in dance and the power of live performance to celebrate the magic of humanity. And to give us a great night out!  

On behalf of all of us at Sadler’s Wells – thank YOU. It’s not always easy in these uncertain times, but if you had any doubt… we’re really back! 

Best wishes 

Alistair & Britannia

We hope that you will come and make new memories with us this year. Without you, we would not be able to celebrate our new season of 27 shows.
