Ashton's "A Month in the Country" is a very enjoyable short ballet based on the Turgenev play. It's one of his later works and was made for Lynn Seymour, a very expressive dancer. The Royal Ballet still performs it from time to time but I'm not sure where else you might be able to see it.

I wish they'd taken a risk and put the Ashton triple bill on the cinema schedule - this is the Royal Ballet after all. Instead, we're getting repeats of stuff we saw last year, and Osipova is being given both Swan Lake and Fille, as though the Royal doesn't have any other principals. I'd have thought Morera or Marquez would have been a more natural choice in Fille, but I suppose Osipova is the one with the name recognition.
