The Teatro alla Scale of Milan has announced its next season (actually from December 2005 to October 2006).

The ballet season will include Lacotte's "La Sylphide", a double bill with "The Cage"  (Robbins) and "La Strada" (Pistoni), Nureyev's production of "Cinderella", Makarova's production of "La Bayadère", a Mozart quadruple bill (with Uwe Scholz' "Concerto JeuneHomme", Jiri Kylian's "Petite mort" and "Sëchs Tanze" and a new work by Christopher Wheeldon), Roland Petit's "The bat" (I think it's an operetta ?), and Nureyev's production of "The Sleeping Beauty".

Also MacMillan's "Manon" will be performed in October 2005.

Does anyone know what happened in Milan (La Scala) with the strikes? Did the dancers end up performing or did the strike (because of dressing rooms?!) indeed go on? I know Sylvie Guillem and Alessandra Ferri were supposed to be performing in Manon...
