Chantry Dance Company - Our Parent Company

Picture
Chantry Dance Company is a Theatrical Contemporary Ballet Company formed in May 2012 and led by co-Artistic Directors and choreographers Paul Chantry and Rae Piper. 

Chantry Dance Company's first public performance was on Sadler's Wells main stage in 2012 as part of the "Chinese Calligraphy, Music and Dance Concert". Paul and Rae had been commissioned through Sadler’s Wells by the Chinese Ministry of Culture to choreograph 5 pieces for the concert which were performed alongside Master Calligrapher Li Binquan to music from the New London Orchestra conducted by Ronald Corp OBE (who is now one of the company patrons!). The show was televised to the whole of China, which was a phenomenal way to start the company.  

Following this incredible debut, CDC has created over numerous works including seven UK tours, a triple bill in collaboration with Ronald Corp OBE, and various major commissions.

 In 2013 Chantry Dance Company re-located from London to Grantham, East Midlands, where Rae and Paul had identified a specific need for high-quality, professional contemporary ballet performance and education opportunities in the region. Chantry Dance Company continues to reside in Grantham and we have become a successful touring company. The company now sits alongside our official school; Chantry School of Contemporary and Balletic Arts, also based in Grantham.
