Seasonal spirit: Birmingham Royal Ballet’s Nutcracker at the REP
Eighty minutes of escape from the awful times we find ourselves in
Eighty minutes of escape from the awful times we find ourselves in
Bruno Bouché, Angelin Preljocaj and Alba Castillo
Follows students through audition, training and rehearsal
Despair, solitude and collective reminiscence
Drawings, photographs, film and other exhibits tell the story of the RAD
Socially distanced maybe, but a super atmosphere nonetheless
Including Tiler Peck in the super Buzzard and Kestrel by William Forsythe
Filled with luscious vocabulary and striking metaphors
