[b]The Australian Ballet presents
Sylvia[/b]
This ballet will on at 31st August to 10th September 2019.
The story of Sylvia is an arrow-wielding nymph who scorns love, falls in love, outwits her abductor and wins through to happiness. This first became a ballet in Paris over 150 years ago. The Delibes score, which had a great review from Tchaikovsky, has since then become the world's leading choreographers, including Ivanov, Ashton, Balanchine and Neumeier.
Stanton Welch's new production of
Sylvia will have its Australian premiere and Welch, who performed his versions of
La Bayadere and
Romeo and Juliet on The Australian Ballet's stage, is a resident choreographer of the company. He is the artistic director of the Houston Ballet and one of the art performances great storytellers.
This is a full-length Sylvia, which goes around three intertwining love stories and features a new design by Jerome Kaplan and Wendell K Harrington (projections), the creative dream team behind The Australian Ballet's
Cinderella.
Welch's Sylvia requires the lead ballerinas to learn sword-fighting, requires three strong superheroines, all the passion and humour of Greek myth, dancing and one of ballet's most scores.
