First Performance 29/07/2011

Closing 01/08/2011

Homage To Fokine opens with Chopiniana, a ballet of ethereal beauty displaying the Mariinsky Ballet’s corps de ballet to stunning effect.

In complete contrast, mediaeval Russia is evoked in the powerful splendour of Mikhael Fokine’s The Firebird, created for Diaghilev’s Ballet Russes to Stravinsky’s brilliant score.

The final work in the programme Scheherazade is another extraordinary work created for the Ballet Russes. Fokine’s sensual choreography and Rimsky-Korsakov’s glittering music create a fantasy of visual extravagance.

Unlike film, theatre doesn't have an official age classification organisation. That means all age recommendations are subjective and should be treated as guidelines unless otherwise stated. With this in mind, we ask you to use your judgement in regards to a show’s suitability prior to purchase. However, we are more than happy to help you make a decision.
