About Sadler’s Wells

Sadler’s Wells is a world-leading creative organisation, dedicated to presenting, producing and touring dance made today in all its forms. We commission, present and produce more dance than any other theatre in the world—spanning tango to hip hop, flamenco to ballet, Bollywood to cutting-edge contemporary.

Our vision is simple yet profound: to create, through dance, a depth of connection that transcends borders, cultures and languages. We believe dance can move us, open our minds, and help us reflect on what it means to be human.

With a year-round programme of performances and learning activities, and with four theatres across London—including our brand-new venue at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park—Sadler’s Wells is where artists and communities come together to create, experience and be inspired by dance.

Our values guide us every day:

• Collaboration: listening, empowering and working together to amplify creativity.
• Excellence: making and sharing meaningful, ambitious and impactful work.
• Inclusion: celebrating difference, removing barriers and reflecting diverse communities.
• Innovation: being curious, bold and unafraid to find new ways forward.
