California Posted March 3, 2023 Posted March 3, 2023 The English National Ballet announced their 2023-2024 season a few days ago. Two Giselles -- Khan and Skeaping, Swan Lake (in the Round), Carmen. I'm guessing Rojo programmed this before she left. Pretty disappointing. No Raymonda (which I hope Rojo brings to San Francisco) https://www.ballet.org.uk/whats-on/ Our Voices THU 21 – SAT 30 SEP 2023 Three works showcasing the vast possibilities of ballet Giselle THU 19 – SAT 28 OCT 2023 National Tour The iconic ballet, reimagined.

Lynette H Posted March 4, 2023 Posted March 4, 2023 This season was programmed by the new AD, Watkin. There's a press release on their website where he introduces the season.. https://www.ballet.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/English-National-Ballets-2023-2024-Season.pdf
volcanohunter Posted September 20, 2023 Posted September 20, 2023 Natascha Mair has abruptly left English National Ballet. She joined the company in 2020, when Martin Schläpfer became director of the Vienna State Ballet. Now she has left ENB two months into Aaron Watkin's tenure. This also leaves the company with an empty principal (vs. lead principal) rank.
