An early festive treat! Birmingham Royal Ballet’s Nutcracker
Colour, rhythm, scale and as traditional as they come
Colour, rhythm, scale and as traditional as they come
The dance floods across the stage in waves of movement that always delight
The last performance of a great partnership
Dramatic intensity and passionate desire
Neumeier immerses himself in Beethoven’s world
Reverberations of rhythm, direction and intent
Following the exacting life of a principal dancer
The soldier seems almost as much a victim
Leaves a warm festive glow
