Kenneth MacMillan’s full-blooded ballet of love, decadence and passion, Manon returns to London with the English National Ballet.
The young and naïve Manon is torn between two lives: privilege and opulence with the wealthy Monsieur GM, or innocent love with the penniless student Des Grieux. Which will she choose?
Aristocrats and beggars, courtesans and harlots fill the stage to take you from a gambling den in 18th-century Paris to a desolate Louisiana swamp, and share with you one of British ballet’s most dramatic stories.
Famous for its expressive choreography and acting demands, Manon features some of the most challenging roles in ballet.
Let the English National Ballet Company sweep you up, to the haunting music of Jules Massenet performed live by English National Ballet Philharmonic.
