Clean, sleek, stylish: Badisches Staatsballett in David Dawson’s Giselle
Modern yes, but still a ballet driven by emotions and imperfect people…and that in Act II especially, touches in all the right places
Modern yes, but still a ballet driven by emotions and imperfect people…and that in Act II especially, touches in all the right places
The setting may be updated but this is very much a Giselle still full of powerful feelings that reach out and touch
A glorious production that reminded us that, against the all odds, the arts can carry on
An evening of classical and contemporary new works and gala favourites performed by leading artists from around the world
A glimpse of the company led by Nina Ananiashvili
Three mixed programmes and David Nixon’s Dangerous Liaisons
The ballet is so fresh
Strips away any vestige of fussiness and sentimentality
A show of much cheer on a rainy winter evening
Plus a Forsythe triple-bill, Akram Khan and more
