Sadler's Wells: Peacock Theatre, London, Portugal Street, Holborn, London WC2 2HT, United Kingdom Saturday 18-May-13 02:30pm ZooNation Dance Company — Some Like It Hip Hop Some Like it Hip Hop ZooNation Dance Company ZooNation’s Some Like It Hip Hop has been a runaway success since it hit the Peacock Theatre in 2011, wowing audiences and prompting widespread critical praise with five-star reviews and standing ovations. After a second successful run and celebrating the company’s tenth anniversary at Sadler’s Wells last year, Some Like It Hip Hop returns to the Peacock Theatre to kick-start the summer. Fast becoming a modern classic, Some Like It Hip Hop unites truly sensational dancing and a typically clever and engrossing storyline with infectious “wit, heart and magnificent energy” (The Independent). With a nod to Billy Wilder’s Some Like It Hot and Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, it tells a comical tale of love, mistaken identity, cross-dressing and revolution, all played out in ZooNation’s trademark style of hip hop, comedy and physical theatre. Directed by Sadler’s Wells Associate Artist Kate Prince, Some Like It Hip Hop also features a ground-shaking original soundtrack, live singing and some of the UK’s top hip hop dance talent.

As the sparkling façade of Gatsby’s world begins to slip, Carraway comes to see the loneliness, obsession and tragedy that lie beneath. Adapted from the classic novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby is directed and choreographed by Artistic Director David Nixon OBE, with co-direction from Patricia Doyle, sets by Jérôme Kaplan, lighting by Tim Mitchell and costumes also by David Nixon. As The Great Gatsby enjoys a huge resurgence in popularity, this promises to be a stunning retelling of one of the 20th century’s most compelling stories, brought to life by a remarkable company.

National Theatre, Munich, Munich, Germany Saturday 18-May-13 07:00pm Les Contes d'Hoffmann Tales of Hoffmann (Les Contes d'Hoffmann) (Offenbach, Jacques (1819-1880)) Bavarian State Opera The protagonist of the opera is E.T.A. Hoffmann, the prototype of the German romantic period artist: his life is an artwork, his lower depths, his doubts, his grand inspirations – his crises. And all of these are connected with: women. Hoffmann in the opera tells of three types of woman in his tales, the “lifeless doll with a heart of ice”, the “virtuoso”, ill and destined to die, as well as the “shameless courtesan”. Jacques Offenbach’s opera fantastique, premièred in 1881, is based on the play of the same name by Jules Barbier and Michel Carré, who drew from the biographies and works of E.T.A. Hoffmann, Adelbert von Chamisso and Alfred de Musset to create their own artist’s drama. It is not a literature opera – the protagonists from different romantic tales are connected to one another by a fictitious Hoffmann – but rather more of a message to the writer, telling him to make art his matter of the heart, or perhaps even open up his heart with brutal frankness. Co-production with the English National Opera, London. In French with German surtitles.

Southbank Centre: Queen Elizabeth Hall, London, Belvedere Road, London SE1 8XX, United Kingdom Saturday 18-May-13 07:30pm International Chamber Music Season: Borletti-Buitoni Trust celebrated with Mitsuko Uchida Five acclaimed soloists, including 'superb pianist' (New York Times) Jonathan Biss and 'violinist of fiery talents' (The Times) Alina Ibragimova, join forces to perform Schubert's ever popular Trout quintet in this second Borletti-Buitoni Trust concert. Already known for her varied recordings, from Schubert to Michel van der Aa, mezzo soprano Christianne Stotijn moves effortlessly between styles and here presents two very different sets of songs. Hear Brahms' brooding Two songs for alto, viola and piano and Schoenberg's early atonal cycle Buch der hängenden Gärten. As The Times wrote of a recent recording, 'whatever the song, Stotijn sings from the heart to the heart.' Before joining Stotijn in the Brahms, Antoine Tamestit plays the first of Mozart's energetic two duos for violin and viola with Alina Ibragimova. Queen Elizabeth Hall at 6.15pm - pre-concert talk. In 2012 the Elias String Quartet embarks on a tour performing the complete cycle of Beethoven quartets at venues all over the UK. In early 2011, with BBT's support, they launched a unique, website which openly shares with the public their immersion in the study, analysis, practice and discovery of Beethoven. Their aim was to demystify both the music and reveal how they are preparing for this huge undertaking. Find out how they have fared. Free.

Dorking Halls, Dorking RH4 1SG, United Kingdom Saturday 18-May-13 07:30pm Dorking Concertgoers Society: Harp Duo Recital by Mélissa Kenny & Tamara Young This concert is a musical journey exploring two contrasting and complementary repertoires: French and Spanish music through the medium of two harps. The first part focuses on French repertoire of the 20th century and Impressionism and includes works by Claude Debussy, Maurice Ravel and Bernard Andrès. The second part explores Spanish songs, dances and traditional rhythms from Spain as well as South America and includes works by Isaac Albeniz, Enrique Granados and traditional South American pieces. With this programme we are hoping to allow a wider audience to discover the colours of the harp, an instrument which remains quite unfamiliar in concert halls, playing outside the orchestra. In an intimate chamber music context, we will explore the perhaps less-known fiery and rhythmical possibilities of the two harps and the famous airy and magical feel of the two instruments playing together. Sponsored by the Countess of Munster Musical Trust. Works by Debussy, Claude (1862-1918) Works by Ravel, Maurice (1875-1937) Works by Andres, Bernard (b. 1941) Works by Albéniz, Isaac (1860-1909) Works by Granados, Enrique (1867-1916) Kenny Melissa, Harp Tamara Young, Harp Dorking Concertgoers
