Princess Aurora's Friend
Viaja con el Royal Ballet a un mundo encantado de princesas y hadas madrinas en la histórica producción de Marius Petipa con música de Tchaikovski. Esta producción de la Bella Durmiente lleva deleitando al público de Covent Garden desde 1946. Un clásico del ballet ruso que coronó al Royal Ballet en su nueva sede, tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial, como gran compañía a nivel mundial. Sesenta años después, en 2006, se ha rescatado la puesta en escena original, volviendo a los magníficos diseños de Oliver Messel y a los deslumbrantes trajes. La gran partitura de Pyotr Il’Yich Tchaikovski y la coreografía original de Marius Petipa combinan a la perfección con las variaciones creadas para The Royal Ballet por Frederick Ashton, Anthony Dowell y Christopher Wheeldon. Un ballet que hechiza a todo aquel que lo ve.

Two Frederick Ashton ballets in one exquisite evening performance. Principals Natalia Osipova and Steven McRae dance Ashton's Rhapsody, created for The Royal Ballet in 1980 by Mikhail Baryshnikov and Lesley Collier, with spectacular choreography to suit the dancers' star reputations. Lauren Cuthbertson and Vadim Muntagirov lead a charismatic cast in Ashton's poignant and heart-warming reflection on Love, The Two Pigeons, based on an old French folk tale and first performed on Valentine's Day 1961. These two ballets by the Company's Founder Choreographer capture The Royal Ballet's famous skill and distinctive style. Barry Wordsworth conducts the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House in the rapturous Rachmaninoff and Messager scores.
Justine Moritz (Madame Moritz's Daughter)
Inspired by Mary Shelley’s Gothic masterpiece, Frankenstein is the world premiere of Liam Scarlett’s new full-length ballet. A story of betrayal, curiosity, life, death and, above all, love, exploring the very depths of human nature. Federico Bonelli dances the role of Victor Frankenstein, Laura Morera is his Elizabeth, and Steven McRae is the creature. Koen Kessels conducts Lowell Liebermann’s newly commissioned score in this co-production between The Royal Ballet and San Francisco Ballet.
Hen
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.
Alice's Sister
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.
