Renowned British choreographer Peter Darrell's masterpiece Tales of Hoffmann was staged as a new production in 2015. This piece portrays an intense human drama through the love affairs of the protagonist Hoffmann, demanding great expressiveness and artistry on the part of the dancers. The love motifs are truly diverse and alluring, woven throughout the performance by the various characters, from the protagonist Hoffmann, shown from adolescence through to his latter years, the three seductive women who steal Hoffmann's heart, and the devil, who appears in different forms. Expect a fantasy of a story, romantic and luxurious yet with a touch of the forlorn, complemented by beautifully flowing and variegated music by Jacques Offenbach.
