Drew Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 I don’t closely follow the programming of most European companies and only just today saw that La Scala’s upcoming season includes a new Coppelia from Ratmansky premiering in December. I did not see any further information about the production or his approach. (I love both Balanchine’s production at NYCB and Burlaka’s historical reconstruction at the Bolshoi.)

dirac Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Thanks, Drew. I couldn't find anything more about it, either. I expect we'll hear more soon. Marina Harss is probably already on the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bingham Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 I hope it would be a Co production with ABT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volcanohunter Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 (edited) In the most recent City Ballet podcast Ratmansky mentioned that his Coppélia will be original choreography, not a reconstruction. https://podcast.nycballet.com/episode-95-new-combinations-alexei-ratmansky Edited September 12 by volcanohunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
California Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 On 7/30/2023 at 3:22 PM, bingham said: I hope it would be a Co production with ABT. I did some serious googling, but Ratmansky's new Coppelia doesn't appear to be a co-production with anybody. ABT seems more interested in pursuing contemporary art works, like Woolf Works and Like Water for Chocolate. Coppelia (especially by Ratmansky) would be appreciated by serious balletomanes, but probably not the audience ABT seems to be trying to reach.
