The Royal Ballet estrena ‘The Cellist’, una nueva producción de una de las coreógrafas punteras en la escena internacional: Cathy Martson, junto con el clásico del aclamado Jerome Robbins ‘Dances at a Gathering’. Cathy Marston fue artista asociada en la Royal Opera House y directora del Bern Ballet con una gran proyección internacional. Su primer trabajo en el escenario principal de The Royal Ballet está inspirado en un momento trascendental de la vida y carrera de la violonchelista Jacqueline du Pré. La segunda parte del programa la ocupa el elegante y elegíaco clásico de Jerome Robbins. Este ejercicio de pura danza para cinco parejas, con la música de Chopin, es una obra maestra de la sutileza y el ingenio.

Flight Pattern, de Crystal Pite, que se repone por primera vez, utiliza una gran danza de conjunto y se vale de la familiar música de Górecki tomada de su Sinfonía de las Canciones Quejumbrosas para realizar una intensa y apasionada reflexión sobre la migración.

Clara is given an enchanted Nutcracker doll on Christmas Eve. As midnight strikes, she creeps downstairs to find a magical adventure awaiting her and her Nutcracker. Recorded on stage 3 December 2018—15 January 2019 as part of the Autumn 2018/19 season.

One sunny afternoon, during a garden party, young Alice sees with surprise how the writer Lewis Carroll, a friend of her parents, unusually turns into a white rabbit, and immediately feels the irrepressible desire to follow him into a magical rabbit hole.

The first revival of Wayne McGregor’s critically acclaimed ballet triptych to music by Max Richter, inspired by the works of Virginia Woolf.

The young Clara creeps downstairs on Christmas Eve to play with her favourite present – a Nutcracker. But the mysterious magician Drosselmeyer is waiting to sweep her off on a magical adventure. After defeating the Mouse King, the Nutcracker and Clara travel through the Land of Snow to the Kingdom of Sweets, where the Sugar Plum Fairy treats them to a wonderful display of dances. Back home, Clara thinks she must have been dreaming – but doesn’t she recognize Drosselmeyer’s nephew?

Frederick Ashton's La Fille mal gardée (The Wayward Daughter) is one of the choreographer's most joyous and colourful creations. Inspired by his love for the Suffolk countryside, the ballet is set on a farm and tells a story of love between Lise, the daughter of Widow Simone, and Colas, a young farmer. It contains some of Ashton's most stunning choreography, most strikingly in the series of energetic pas de deux that express the youthful passion of the young lovers, performed here by Natalia Osipova and Steven McRae. The ballet is laced with exuberant good humour, and elements of national folk dance, from dancing chickens and a maypole dance to a Lancashire clog dance for Widow Simone, performed by Philip Mosley.

At a garden party on a sunny afternoon, Alice is surprised to see her parents’ friend Lewis Carroll transform into a white rabbit. When she follows him down a rabbit hole events become curiouser and curiouser.

The Royal Ballet and the Royal Opera collaborate in Wayne McGregor's production of Handel and Gay's classic opera, in which the nymph Galatea falls in love with a shepherd named Acis.
