Meet the Contenders – The Rose International Dance Prize Christos Papadopoulos
Choreographer Christos Papadopoulos talks on his work LARSEN C, which won The Rose International Dance Prize 2025. LARSEN C presents a shape-shifting ensemble of dancers asking, ‘what lies beneath the tip of an iceberg?’ – both literally and otherwise. In this interview, hear about the moment he was inspired to make the piece and how he approached choreographing the work.
This episode is part of Meet the Contenders, a series where Sadler’s Wells speaks to the choreographers nominated for The Rose International Dance Prize, which celebrates original dance creations from across the globe.
