Adagio, and has been considered one of the greatest ballets in the Bolshoi repertoire since

Marius Petipa’s version of the ballet was part of the Bolshoi’s repertoire until the beginning of
the 20th century. In 2007 Alexei Ratmansky and Yuri Burlaka presented a new choreographic
version, which stands out as the most sumptuous of all. Thrilling suspense is at the core
of this lavish exotic fable, an amazing production complete with pirates, kidnapping, a
shipwreck, and a record 120 dancers on stage.

Cursed at birth by the evil fairy Carabosse, Princess Aurora descends into a deep slumber on
the day of her 16th birthday. Only the kiss of a prince will awaken her. With glorious music by
Tchaikowsky based on Charles Perrault’s classic fairy tale, Marius Petipa’s masterpiece is one
of the most popular and accomplished choreographic works in the classical repertoire. The
new version by Yuri Grigorovich will captivate the whole family during the Christmas season.
Inspired by the famous jewellers of New York’s Fifth Avenue, this triptych is a tribute to women,
and to the cities of Paris, New York and St Petersburg using music by three great composers
for each act. Choreographed in 1967 in New York City, this ballet, with its jewel-like costumes,
celebrates the elegance, aesthetic and style of choreographer George Balanchine. Emeralds was
conceived as a poetic tribute to the French romantic school and Rubies to the American tradition
of Broadway musicals, while Diamonds honours the virtuosity of classical Russian dancers.

dramaturgical advice by French actor, writer and director Guillaume Gallienne. This stylised

Since its first performance at the National Theatre in
2007, War Horse has become an international smash
hit, capturing the imagination of four million people
around the world.
Based on Michael Morpurgo’s novel and adapted for
the stage by Nick Stafford, War Horse takes audiences
on an extraordinary journey from the fields of rural
Devon to the trenches of First World War France. Filled
with stirring music and songs, this powerfully moving
and imaginative drama is a show of phenomenal
inventiveness. At its heart are astonishing lifesize puppets by South Africa’s Handspring Puppet
Company, who bring breathing, galloping, charging
horses to thrilling life on stage.
