Under the direction of Artistic Director Christopher Marney (former principal dancer at New Adventures and director of the Joffrey Ballet Studio Company of Chicago), the company will perform a programme of acclaimed works by British choreographers, including a revival of Kenneth MacMillan’s 1972 one-act ballet Ballade, unseen in Europe for over 50 years. The repertoire also includes Ashley Page’s Larina Waltz marking the ballet’s 30 th anniversary, and Olivier award-winner Arielle Smith premieres a new creation, Five Dances. A full company work by Christopher Marney called Eve, which premiered at Sadler’s Wells in 2022, will complete the performance.
