Ballet Nights 008
Nemesis is a real juicy nugget of a work, one that makes you want to see more of Ihsan Rustem’s choreography and Ballett Augsburg.

One of the most beautifully danced ballets I have seen in a long while. All the dancers were both technically and expressively excellent
Watching new choreographers trying their hand… you realise what a supremely difficult art choreography is. But what joy when the elements align
an emotional evening of dance. From the bittersweet melancholy of Rudi van Danzig’s Four Last Songs to the full-blooded passion of Mthuthuzeli November’s Fools with a fun interlude from Kristin McNally between, it was an evening to engage heart and soul.
The setting may be dreary, but the story is warm, the characters vividly brought to life. Carols, Christmas tunes, fine dance, and a good story.
Ballet returns to the Royal Shakespeare Theatre with Romeo and Juliet. “It’s fabulous to see it again and its Northern Ballet at their best.”
The costumes are breathtaking, the lighting perfectly captures its changing moods and the dancing, of course, was excellent.
In what is the best year yet for diversity, the nominations are spread across a record 29 separate companies
Shedding their very traditional image, the Royal Opera House has opened up unusual spaces and introduced new faces.
A season of new commissions and the revival of the iconic and popular Romeo & Juliet, A Christmas Carol and Jane Eyre.
The undoubted highlight… is Tiler Peck’s Intimate Pages. It’s full of invention and packed with steps. The dance eats up every inch of the stage.
