Isabella Gasparini (Danses Concertantes); Giacomo Rovero (Danses Concertantes); Sae Maeda (Danses Concertantes); Valentino Zucchetti (Danses Concertantes); Ashley Dean (Danses Concertantes); Marcelino Sambé (Woyzeck (Different Drummer)); Francesca Hayward (Marie (Different Drummer)); Sarah Lamb (Requiem); William Bracewell (Requiem); Melissa Hamilton (Requiem); Joseph Sissens (Requiem); Mariko Sasaki (Requiem)

From a kaleidoscopic abstract ballet to a poignant elegy, celebrate Kenneth MacMillan’s endless invention in three works.

Kenneth MacMillan (1929–92) was the leading choreographer of his generation. Renowned for his full-length dramatic works which dug deep into the human psyche, MacMillan’s creativity knew no bounds. His one-act works also reshaped the collective identity of The Royal Ballet, challenging the art form to reflect real-life emotions, passions and human frailty. In three varied works, this mixed programme offers a taster of MacMillan’s exceptional craft.
