Two vivid debuts as Colas, marked the second revival of La Fille mal gardée this season at The Royal Ballet.

If you’re in need of a pick-me-up, get thee to the Royal Opera House and see La Fille mal gardée, a gem of a ballet. There’s a long roster of impressive casts to choose from.

Ballet’s best romcom, a lovingly maintained classic.  

Paris Opera Ballet tackles a British classic with aplomb but needs to delve deeper into the quintessentially British humour and charm.

Ashton's La Fille mal gardée, as performed by the Czech National Ballet, delighted Omani audiences in Muscat.

A ballet of charming nonsense, led by a triumvirate of exceptional performances 

Sir Frederick Ashton's quintessentially English ballet returns, dressed in pastel shades with knockabout fun everywhere.

La Fille mal gardée est une comédie haute en couleur mais aussi ballet virtuose, où les variations s’enchaînent allègrement. Pour cette reprise, la performance théâtrale des interprètes de l’Opéra de Paris, particulièrement débridés dans les seconds rôles, est remarquable.

Considering its French title, Sir Frederick Ashton’s ballet La Fille mal gardée is quintessentially English. Laura Morera and Vadim Muntagirov brought the bright spring sunshine from outside to flood the auditorium in delightfully sunny performances.
