El ballet neoclásico viste de gala al Teatro Real:

Cintia Borges Carreras, 26th January

Un reducido número de integrantes del Ballet de l’Opéra National de Paris ha presentado en el Real un programa de obras cortas y han danzado más allá de la técnica, mostrando el cuerpo que siente el movimiento y baila.

Anhelos, tormentos y divertimentos con la Compañía Nacional de Danza

La Compañía Nacional de Danza propuso un delicado programa que recorre los puntos fuertes de la agrupación en el Teatro Real, y donde la elección estrella fue In the nigth de Jerome Robbins.

Ivy Lin, 20th November

Dutch National Ballet returning to New York after more than 40 years should have been thrilling. The opening program, whilst beautifully danced, was somewhat muted.
