She remained true to her Japanese sensibilities in becoming the company's first Asian female principal dancer. A year before her retirement, however, she faced injury, emergency hospitalization and separation from a loved one. The program follows Yoshida for 300 days, culminating in her memorable final appearance.

Following the pivotal impact of Dust and Giselle, Akram Khan returns to English National Ballet for his third collaboration with us. Creature is an unearthly tale of exploitation and human frontiers inspired by Georg Büchner’s expressionist classic Woyzeck, with shadows of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Drawing on themes of abandonment, isolation and the fragility of the mind, Creature is the tale of an outsider and the search for belonging. Khan is joined by a brilliant creative team of Academy Award-winning designer Tim Yip, composer and sound designer Vincenzo Lamagna, lighting designer Michael Hulls and dramaturg Ruth Little.

Bruce Wall Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 See the Bolshoi's USA (United States of America) tour for this summer is cancelled. Understandable certainly. Wonder whether or not the NBoC's (National Ballet of Canada) presentation of Nureyev's SB (Sleeping Beauty) will now be realised at the ROH (Royal Opera House)? Time, I suppose, will tell.

Doesn't she just! I have just watched this film and was touched by the way she said she had felt 'ugly' and 'inadequate' - the opposite of how she really is! I also thought Bonelli came over very well, as much a gentleman backstage as he is in his princely roles. As for Mukhamedov.... well 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shade Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I found the Miyako programme very sad - she seemed to be suffering so much. The part with Mukhamedov was very moving - as they Worked to overcame the challenge of the piece. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have seen it live and on screen a few times. The concept is that the story is Siegfried's dream which enables the mirroring of the tutor and the Rothbart character . I prefer the white acts which have the least 'tampering'. In fact I think Act 4 is really good choreographically. I'm not sure whether it's the drab costuming of the other two acts which diminishes my enjoyment or the dance sequences. The two new young principals in this video are very good particularly Germain Louvet. But without Nureyev around to direct revivals I suspect the production has probably lost a lot of its original intention and drive and is performed rather dutifully these days. It's very dated now and I find it hard to like. Whether the POB will ever replace any of the Nureyev productions no one knows.

maryrosesatonapin Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 @stucha I agree that Louvet was beautiful, and that there are elements that are dated. What I felt was almost a gay love frisson between Siegfried and the tutor - there were some gorgeous duets for the two of them but far removed from the original.
