The Dream/Symphonic Variations/Margeurite and Armand Encore

Certificate
12A

The Royal Ballet’s performance of a mixed programme of work by its founder choreographer Frederick Ashton.

The Dream is an enchanting dance adaptation of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, while the abstract Symphonic Variations has been acclaimed as Ashton’s first masterpiece. Finally, there’s Marguerite and Armand, a tragic, lyrical love story inspired by the dance partnership of Margot Fonteyn and Rudolf Nureyev.
