  • Coppélia Theatre Tickets, Sydney Opera House Dinner/Tour Packages, Sydney
    Three acts of magic, mayhem and mistaken identity

    Coppélia has everything a good story ballet should: a touch of magic, a dash of romance and masses of sumptuous costumes. It all begins at the Harvest Festival, where the appearance of Dr Coppelius and his mysterious 'doll' Coppélia upset the celebrations. Village boy Franz falls for Coppélia but when his feisty fiancée exacts her revenge, he learns the hard way not to romance living dolls. Coppélia has been a family favourite for 140 years now, and this production is one of the very finest, with fairytale sets and costumes and a thoroughly danceable score.

  • The Silver Rose Theatre Tickets, Sydney Opera House Dinner/Tour Packages, Sydney
    An Australian premiere from Graeme Murphy

    Choreographic legend Graeme Murphy returns to The Australian Ballet stage in 2010 with a dazzling new full-length work. Based loosely on The Rose Cavalier, The Silver Rose is a ballet of romantic intrigue and love gone wrong. The Marschallin, an actress, is still very beautiful but fears her lover might fall for a younger woman. Inevitably he does. Against spectacular Art Nouveau sets, the cast tie each other in romantic knots. It seems in turn-of-last-century Vienna, love is a dangerous game. With music by Australian composer Carl Vine, The Silver Rose is set to be Murphy's sell-out success of 2010.

    In this untraditional composite production, we take the audience to the behind-the-scenes world of ballet training, we acquaint the theatregoers with the dancers’ preparation and we profile the moment when they go on stage with their top performances. The spoken dialogue maintained by our guides informs the audience of the way in which ballet has developed from court dances through to the present and how the important techniques of classical dance have been formed. The National Theatre’s corps de ballet and soloists will perform short examples of some of the most interesting forms of ballet and the methods of choreographic creation. At the end, we will also present the ballet in its comic form.

    Choreographer and director Libor Vaculík, based on the immortal novel by Alexander Dumas Jr. and applying the principles of neo-classical dance technique, tells the story of the famous Paris courtesan Marguerite. The main character is based on a genuine person of whom few people knew that she suffered from a devastating disease. She appeared in society adorned with a delicate camellia flower, therefore she was nicknamed the “Lady of the Camellias”. She was worshiped by men but she chose to adapt her own emotional life to their volatile interests. It was not before she met Armand that she learned real love but her fate was mightier than their desires. The musical score is based upon the best known melodies from the famous opera by G. Verdi La traviata, adapted for the ballet by Sergey Onsoff.

    Running time: 2 hours with 1 intermission
  • Giselle Theatre Tickets, Státní opery Praha (Prague State Opera), Prague
    Giselle is a ballet, in two acts, from the Romantic period. Its music was composed by the French ballet and opera composer Adolphe Adam (with additions by Friedrich Burgmüller and Léon Minkus) and libretto by Théophile Gautier and Jules-Henri Vernoy de Saint-Georges. It was choreographed by Jean Coralli and Jules Perrot. Giselle was first presented by the Ballet of the Académie Royale de Musique (today known as the Paris Opera Ballet) on 28 June 1841. It is one of the few ballets of that era which has survived.

    In the first act, a young, innocent village maiden named Giselle is in love with a man she knows only as Loys. In reality, the man is Albrecht, a nobleman disguised as a peasant, and who is betrothed to Bathilde, daughter of the Duke. When Giselle discovers the deceit, she is inconsolable and goes mad, then dies of a broken heart.

    In the second act, her undying love for Albrecht saves him from the wicked magic of the wilis (Fairies in Slavic mythology), vampiric ghosts of betrothed girls who have died before their wedding day. Though their leader, Myrtha, Queen of the Wilis, forces Albrecht to dance again and again, Giselle intervenes long enough to spare his strength and allow him to survive until the dawn.

    At sunrise, wilis must return to their grave; Giselle must return as well but not before showing Albrecht that she forgives him for his treachery. The two pledge their love to each other and she descends back into her grave, but will forever be separated as Giselle is now a wili for all eternity.

    The ballet by Sergey Prokofiev represents one of the most charming stagings of Charles Perraults fairy tale of the modest and graceful girl who, unlike her two step-sisters, did not hunt for her luck and still won the love of a handsome prince in the end.

    This staging of Prokofievs ballet by the outstanding Czech choreographer Pavel mok and the Prague State Opera ballet chief Pavel umbala, immediately became one of the most successful performances of the Prague State Opera.

    The main roles are performed by the outstanding soloists Miss Lucie Holnkov (Cinderella), Mr Michal Chovanec and Mr Ondej Novotn (the Prince) and Mr Milan Boek (The Step-Mother).

    A review printed in the Financial Times of London said after the first night that it was the best imaginable introduction to ballet for a child spectator.

    Despite the many noteworthy titles in the ballet heritage, only one has made it into the broad public awareness as the synonym for classical dance: It is Swan Lake by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.

    This colourful and moving story about the love of the Prince and the subtle Odette, who was turned into a swan by the evil Redbeard, has achieved immortality thanks to the overwhelming invention of the composer, and also thanks to the surviving choreographed passages of M. Petipa and L. Ivanov.

    Since the original version, each new generation of ballet soloists and ensembles has encountered this exciting challenge in order to present the ultimate brilliance in dance.

    Our production deliberately respects the original version of the work and its sublime fairy-tale spirit, while also wishing to meet the expectations of those who admire the finest ballet technique.
