A diverse program which shows the breadth and depth of the Royal Ballet. 

The Royal Ballet marks the centennary of the First Wolrd War with a reflective, and commemorative programme. With works by Branstrup and Wheeldon, as well as a Scarlett world première.

Last Friday, The Royal Ballet presented an exciting bill composed of George Balanchine’s iconic Apollo (1928) and two new ballets by acclaimed choreographers Alexei Ratmansky and Christopher Wheeldon. The programme was cleverly designed, since Ratmansky and Wheeldon are renowned explorers of the neoclassical style inaugurated by Balanchine.
