dirac Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 A review of the Royal Ballet by Sarah Crompton in The Observer. Quote How lucky the Royal Ballet is to have McGregor as resident choreographer at the same time as Christopher Wheeldon is artistic associate. Both men are working at the height of their powers, creating works that showcase the talent of the company, pushing on in their own explorations of what a dancing body can do. Link to comment
dirac Posted June 25, 2023 Author Share Posted June 25, 2023 A review of Queensland Ballet by Ruth Ridgway for Bachtrack. Quote Based on Miles Franklin’s 1901 novel My Brilliant Career and developed in collaboration with dramaturg Edward Kemp, the 45-minute neoclassical ballet is succinct, pacy and emotionally absorbing. It tells the story of 16-year-old Sybylla, torn between a life that includes love and marriage, and a life that leads to adventure and discovery. Link to comment

dirac Posted June 25, 2023 Author Share Posted June 25, 2023 The National Ballet of Canada presents "Romeo and Juliet." Quote Thursday’s opening night at the Four Seasons Centre featured principal dancers Heather Ogden and Ben Rudisin, heroically stepping in to replace his offstage partner Harrison James, who bowed out at the last minute because of injury. And on Friday, Ogden’s husband, Guillaume Côté, performed what the company says will be his final round of Romeos after dancing the role for more than two decades. Link to comment
