People in Britain and the USA are taking more interest in modern dance. Dance classes of all kinds are popular; the number of people going to watch modern dance companies is also larger. And perhaps the most popular modern dance company in Britain is the Ballet Rambert.

The Ballet Rambert is Britain’s oldest dance company which began in 1926. In the 1960s, the company didn’t have enough money to put on big performances. The directors wanted to encourage new dancers and to keep up their high standards.

A change of direction was necessary. They decided to give the ballet a “new look” in 1966. The aim was to provide a chance for new talent—for musicians and designers as well as dancers—and to show dance as a modern art form. And although some of the company’s fans disliked the change, new audiences came to see the performances. The modern dance pieces and modern music found unexpected popularity. In 1968, the Ballet Rambert was a great success in London’s West End. The company became a good choice for new, progressive talent in the arts.

Later, the Ballet Rambert started to introduce young people to modern dance by giving performances at schools, which again, was a success. The Ballet Rambert has managed to make modern dance popular while creating performances different from the old ones. It is considered the oldest dance company in Britain and at the same time one of the most modern!
