The Forsythe Programme

A world premiere and two classics from the master choreographer, William Forsythe. In 2022, Playlist (EP) brought the house down. Combining ballet classicism and athleticism with the music of Barry White, Natalie Cole and more, it left audiences "tipsy with delight" (Financial Times). It's back in 2025 to bring pure happiness into our lives! Our dancers will also perform New Suite, an arrangement of eight early Forsythe pas de deux. Set to Händel, Berio and Bach, these memorable vignettes showcase his signature style - rooted in the classical tradition yet layered with unconventional juxtapositions of ballet's kinetic logic. Completing this special programme will be your chance to experience a World Premiere, where Forsythe takes inspiration from the 2nd movement of Prokofiev's piano concerto number 3 in C major Opus 26; "Tema con Variazioni"
