Pure Seduction! // BOLERO

Not only Friedemann Vogel is rehearsing Maurice Béjart’s Bolero. Our Principal Dancer Alicia Amatriain will also dance this “seductive” role … on February 23, 27 and 28, 2017 (subject to change …). So you will have to wait a little longer for her performance, but here’s already a preview:

Pure Seduction! // LE SPECTRE DE LA ROSE

Yes, today we have some more photos of Le Spectre de la Rose in our rehearsal diary, even though there is no male “spirit of the rose” to be seen. In Marco Goecke’s Spectre he has a strong female counterpart – here you can see our Demi Soloist Agnes Su rehearsing for this role:

Pure Seduction! // FAUN

By the way: Have we introduced you to our guest ballet mistress yet? Her name is Daisy Philips and she teaches Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui’s Faun to our dancers. Together with James O’Hara she is the original cast of Faun. And we’re very happy to have her here!
