14:00 The Winter's Tale
Premiere. Ballet in three acts. Libretto by Christopher Wheeldon and Joby Talbot after the play of the same name by William Shakespeare. Choreographer: Christopher Wheeldon. Music Director: Anton Grishanin. First premiered at London's Royal Opera House in 2014, The Winter’s Tale was built on the success of Wheeldon and Talbot’s earlier partnership on Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Judith Mackrell, writing in The Guardian, said ‘Winter's Tale is one of the most fully achieved story ballets to be created at the Royal Ballet in years’ and Katherine Colombus noted in The Stage that ‘Joby Talbot’s specially-commissioned new score is masterful.’ The story follows the destruction of a marriage through consuming jealousy, the abandonment of a child and a seemingly hopeless love. Yet, through remorse and regret – and after a statue of Hermione appears to come miraculously to life – the ending is one of forgiveness and reconciliation. With powerful designs by Bob Crowley and atmospheric music by Joby Talbot, The Winter’s Tale is a masterful modern narrative ballet.
