The Royal Opera House
The Nutcracker
15 December - 10 January 2009 (selected dates)
Classical ballet at its most approachable and visually entrancing, this seasonal favourite has something for everyone to enjoy. The magical story tells of one Christmas Eve when a young girl creeps downstairs to find herself at the start of a wonderful night as the Christmas tree grows and the toy soldiers come to life to fight the Mouse King!
The Royal Opera House
La Bayadere
13 January - 7 February 2009 (selected dates)
Romantic India provides the setting for one of The Royal Ballet's favourite works. The tale of love, murder and vengeful judgement by the gods centres around Nikiya, the beautiful temple dancer who provokes the murderous jealousy of her wicked rival, Gamzatti.
The Royal Opera House
Swan Lake
27 February - 4 April 2009 (selected dates)
One of the most loved of all classical ballets, Swan Lake has the magical combination of Tchaikovsky's music with a compelling story of tragic romance. Illuminated by moonlight, the charged solos for the Prince and Odette and the colour of the palace ball all combine with glorious music to make for an evening of inspiration and romance.
