SUMMARY:The Australian Ballet: Romeo & Juliet
DESCRIPTION:In the history of dance\, there are only a handful of productions that translate Shakespeare’s story of tragic love into compelling ballet form. \n\n\n\n\nJohn Cranko’s majestic version is one of them. His Romeo and Juliet premiered in 1962\, the year The Australian Ballet was founded\, and generations of our dancers have grown up with the production and gone on to shine in its many dream roles. \nAn artist who effortlessly fused dance and drama\, Cranko richly evokes the grandeur of the Capulets’ ball\, the fierce clashes of the rival families and the brief\, luminous flare of young love. His choreography seems to flow spontaneously out of Sergei Prokofiev’s score\, which has proven itself as immortal as Shakespeare’s play. As clearly as words could\, the music lays out the progress of the story\, evoking swordplay\, ecstasy\, murder and the looming approach of the lovers’ fate. \nJürgen Rose’s dramatically resonant design captures the pageantry of medieval Verona\, contrasting the heavy splendour of the aristocratic elder generation with the billowing fabrics of the young lovers’ carefree abandon. \nCranko’s Romeo and Juliet binds artists and audiences in a profound emotional experience that will linger long after the curtain falls. \n\n\n\n\n7 – 18 October 2022 |  Arts Centre Melbourne\, State Theatre \nPerformance dates & times\n\n\n\nFriday 7 Oct 7:30 PM\n\n\nSaturday 8 Oct 1:30 PM\, 7:30 PM\n\n\nMonday 10 Oct 6:30 PM\n\n\nTuesday 11 Oct 7:30 PM\n\n\nWednesday 12 Oct 1:30 PM\, 7:30 PM\n\n\nThursday 13 Oct 7:30 PM\n\n\nFriday 14 Oct 7:30 PM\n\n\nSaturday 15 Oct 1:30 PM\, 7:30 PM\n\n\nMonday 17 Oct7:30 PM\n\n\nTuesday 18 Oct 7:30 PM\n\n\nRunning Time: 2 hours and 36 minutes (including 20 minute interval) \nPrice range \n\n\n\nAdult $50.00 – $292.00\n\n\nPensioner $46.00 – $242.00\n\n\nSenior $48.00 – $279.00\n\n\nUnder 30 $46.00 – $242.00\n\n\nChild $38.00 – $166.00

SUMMARY:The Australian Ballet: Instruments of Dance - Movers of the 21st century
DESCRIPTION:In this contemporary triple bill\, resident choreographers from three of the world’s top companies respond to scores from modern-day composers working in very different musical fields. \n\n\n\n\nJustin Peck\, resident choreographer of New York City Ballet\, has invigorated the company with his fresh take on classical technique. He makes his Australian debut with Everywhere We Go. Set to a score commissioned from indie singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens\, costumed in witty nautical stripes\, it’s a nine-part ballet for 25 dancers who stream in and out of complex group formations and pin-sharp pas de deux. Like his predecessors at New York City Ballet\, George Balanchine and Jerome Robbins\, Peck brings the energy of Hollywood and Broadway to the classical stage. \nWayne McGregor’s all-male Obsidian Tear takes us to the shadowy depths of the planet – and the psyche. McGregor\, the rigorously cerebral resident choreographer of The Royal Ballet\, assembles movement around multi-disciplinary explorations: in this case\, into geology\, myth and the violent effects of emotion on the body. Responding to violin works by the Finnish conductor-composer Esa-Pekka Salonen\, McGregor moves away from the hyperextended\, piston-fast movement of works like Chroma and Dyad 1929\, finding a more flowing and introspective movement quality. Nine men circle and clash\, evoking ritual\, brutality\, sensuality and the tectonic forces that mould the earth. \nThe third resident choreographer of the program is The Australian Ballet’s own\, Alice Topp. Her new work will feature Australian design and a commissioned score by Australian composer Bryony Marks\, and will continue her journey into the emotional core of human experience. \nBringing together fascinating works from three corners of the globe\, Instruments of Dance maps the shape of the art form in the 21st century. \n23 September – 1 October 2022 | Arts Centre Melbourne State Theatre \nPerformance dates & times\n\n\n\nFriday 23 Sep 7:30 PM\n\n\nSaturday 24 Sep 1:30 PM\, 7:30 PM\n\n\nMonday 26 Sep 6:30 PM\n\n\nTuesday 27 Sep7:30 PM\n\n\nWednesday 28 Sep 1:30 PM\, 7:30 PM\n\n\nThursday 29 Sep 7:30 PM\n\n\nFriday 30 Sep 7:30 PM\n\n\nSaturday 1 Oct 1:30 PM\, 7:30 PM\n\n\nRunning Time 2 hours 30 minutes (inc. 2 x 25 minute intervals)

SUMMARY:The Australian Ballet: Instruments of Dance - Movers of the 21st century
DESCRIPTION:In this contemporary triple bill\, resident choreographers from three of the world’s top companies respond to scores from modern-day composers working in very different musical fields. \n\n\n\n\nJustin Peck\, resident choreographer of New York City Ballet\, has invigorated the company with his fresh take on classical technique. He makes his Australian debut with Everywhere We Go. Set to a score commissioned from indie singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens\, costumed in witty nautical stripes\, it’s a nine-part ballet for 25 dancers who stream in and out of complex group formations and pin-sharp pas de deux. Like his predecessors at New York City Ballet\, George Balanchine and Jerome Robbins\, Peck brings the energy of Hollywood and Broadway to the classical stage. \nWayne McGregor’s all-male Obsidian Tear takes us to the shadowy depths of the planet – and the psyche. McGregor\, the rigorously cerebral resident choreographer of The Royal Ballet\, assembles movement around multi-disciplinary explorations: in this case\, into geology\, myth and the violent effects of emotion on the body.

SUMMARY:The Australian Ballet: Harlequinade
DESCRIPTION:A lively love story based on commedia dell’arte\, Harlequinade was created in 1900 by Marius Petipa\, who choreographed some of classical ballet’s most enduring works\, including Swan Lake and The Sleeping Beauty. \n\n\n\n\nWorking with the original notation of Petipa’s choreography\, Alexei Ratmansky\, former director of the Bolshoi Ballet and artist in residence at American Ballet Theatre\, has produced a loving and humorous revival. \nHarlequin and Columbine are in love\, but her father\, who wants her to marry a rich buffoon\, has her locked up by Pierrot\, his loyal servant. Pierrot’s wife\, sympathetic to the young couple\, helps her escape\, and a Good Fairy gives Harlequin a magical slap stick that helps him triumph over the odds and win Columbine’s hand in marriage. \nThe melodic\, lilting score is by Riccardo Drigo\, a close collaborator of Tchaikovsky’s; the sets and costumes were created by Robert Perdziola\, based on a close study of the 1900 originals\, which are held at a museum in St Petersburg. \nAfter his century-long sleep\, the irrepressible Harlequin is wide awake and ready to charm ballet lovers of all ages. \nPerformance dates & times\n\n\n\nFriday 17 Jun 7:30 PM\n\n\nSaturday 18 Jun 1:30 PM\, 7:30 PM\n\n\nMonday 20 Jun 6:30 PM\n\n\nTuesday 21 Jun 7:30 PM\n\n\nWednesday 22 Jun 1:30 PM\, 7:30 PM\n\n\nThursday 23 Jun 7:30 PM\n\n\nFriday 24 Jun 7:30 PM\n\n\nSaturday 25 Jun 1:30 PM\, 7:30 PM

Pierrot’s wife\, sympathetic to the young couple\, helps her escape\, and a Good Fairy gives Harlequin a magical slap stick that helps him triumph over the odds and win Columbine’s hand in marriage. \nThe melodic\, lilting score is by Riccardo Drigo\, a close collaborator of Tchaikovsky’s; the sets and costumes were created by Robert Perdziola\, based on a close study of the 1900 originals\, which are held at a museum in St Petersburg. \nAfter his century-long sleep\, the irrepressible Harlequin is wide awake and ready to charm ballet lovers of all ages. \nPerformance dates & times\n\n\n\nFriday 17 Jun 7:30 PM\n\n\nSaturday 18 Jun 1:30 PM\, 7:30 PM\n\n\nMonday 20 Jun 6:30 PM\n\n\nTuesday 21 Jun 7:30 PM\n\n\nWednesday 22 Jun 1:30 PM\, 7:30 PM\n\n\nThursday 23 Jun 7:30 PM\n\n\nFriday 24 Jun 7:30 PM\n\n\nSaturday 25 Jun 1:30 PM\, 7:30 PM

DESCRIPTION:Never before has The Australian Ballet presented contemporary dance of this scale and ambition. Commissioned for the 60th anniversary of Nederlands Dans Theater\, the world’s most celebrated contemporary company\, and now presented for the first time outside of the Netherlands by The Australian Ballet\, Kunstkamer is the joint creation of four choreographers: frequent collaborators Paul Lightfoot and Sol León; Marco Goecke; and the Canadian prodigy Crystal Pite. \nInspired by the 18th-century cabinet of curiosities\, this work draws together diverse elements – stark movement\, song\, film\, spoken word – into an eclectic and fascinating whole\, bound together by recurring motifs and characters and featuring music by a vast array of composers from Beethoven to Bach to Britten\, Janis Joplin to Joby Talbot. \nThe choreography\, moving from the intimacy and humour of solos and pas de deux to intricate waves of ensemble movement\, references dance theatre traditions while exploring new frontiers of expression. \nLike a modern museum curated with wit and incisive intelligence\, Kunstkamer invites you to wonder at the endless possibilities of art. \nDavid’s Insight\n“As The Australian Ballet approaches its 60th anniversary celebrations\, it seems fitting to perform a work created as a 60th anniversary celebration. Kunstkamer is dance at its most surprising\, seen through the lens of some of the most inventive choreographers working today. This work takes The Australian Ballet in a new direction\, exploring new movements and nuances. What unfolds is a world of curiosity and beauty.”

SUMMARY:The Australian Ballet: Kunstkammer
DESCRIPTION:Never before has The Australian Ballet presented contemporary dance of this scale and ambition. Commissioned for the 60th anniversary of Nederlands Dans Theater\, the world’s most celebrated contemporary company\, and now presented for the first time outside of the Netherlands by The Australian Ballet\, Kunstkamer is the joint creation of four choreographers: frequent collaborators Paul Lightfoot and Sol León; Marco Goecke; and the Canadian prodigy Crystal Pite. \nInspired by the 18th-century cabinet of curiosities\, this work draws together diverse elements – stark movement\, song\, film\, spoken word – into an eclectic and fascinating whole\, bound together by recurring motifs and characters and featuring music by a vast array of composers from Beethoven to Bach to Britten\, Janis Joplin to Joby Talbot. \nThe choreography\, moving from the intimacy and humour of solos and pas de deux to intricate waves of ensemble movement\, references dance theatre traditions while exploring new frontiers of expression. \nLike a modern museum curated with wit and incisive intelligence\, Kunstkamer invites you to wonder at the endless possibilities of art. \nDavid’s Insight\n“As The Australian Ballet approaches its 60th anniversary celebrations\, it seems fitting to perform a work created as a 60th anniversary celebration. Kunstkamer is dance at its most surprising\, seen through the lens of some of the most inventive choreographers working today. This work takes The Australian Ballet in a new direction\, exploring new movements and nuances. What unfolds is a world of curiosity and beauty.”
