ROYAL BALLET LIVE BROADCAST: THE WINTER'S TALE

FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY: Shakespeare’s profound story of love and loss, artfully adapted into a contemporary three-act narrative ballet by Artistic Associate Christopher Wheeldon, celebrates its tenth anniversary. A co-production between The Royal Ballet and the National Ballet of Canada. King Leontes of Sicilia is crippled with an all-consuming jealousy when his friend, King Polixenes of Bohemia, stays with him and his wife Hermione. What follows is a tale where a marriage is destroyed, a child is abandoned and all hope is seemingly lost for two lovers. Celebrating its tenth anniversary, The Winter's Tale is an award-winning modern ballet classic, packed with emotional turmoil heightened by Joby Talbot’s compelling score and Bob Crowley’s atmospheric designs. Running time 200 minutes (including two intervals) Choreography: Christopher Wheeldon Scenario: Christopher Wheeldon and Joby Talbot Music: Joby Talbot Designer: Bob Crowley Lighting Designer: Natasha Katz Projection Designer: Daniel Brodie Silk Effects Designer: Basil Twist Conductor: Koen KesselsPT3H20M12A2024-05-22ROYAL BALLET LIVE BROADCAST: THE WINTER'S TALE"ROYAL BALLET LIVE BROADCAST: THE WINTER'S TALE"
