Fascinated by Ms. Spears' antics, a London ballet company pays tribute to the singer.
The Rambert Dance Company in London performed, Meltdown on Friday, a modern ballet about Britney Spears and her recent troubles. Richard Thomas, whose previous credits include Jerry Springer- The Opera, is credited for the music composition for the show.
Gemma Nixon, who plays Britney in the performance called Spears' public persona "sort of grotesque."
In the show, Britney is shown fending off paparazzi, shaving her head and being carried away for medical treatments.
Meltdown is a short performance dubbed as a one-off. It is part of a new choreography season geared towards original works by the dancers.
