Birmingham Royal Ballet - Edward II/+ Triple Bill - Paquita/Daphnis and Chloe/Nine Sinatra Songs archiveEdward II - This story of infatuation, violence and jealousy is played out against a background of political intrigue and religious fervour. Set in medieval England and France, this bloody and disturbing ballet tells the story of a king torn apart as he is forced to choose between his duty and his passions. With exquisite costumes by Jasper Conran and a specially commissioned score influenced by rock, jazz and classical music, Edward II has the power to completely change your perception of ballet. Triple Bill - Paquita - Beautiful classical dance with sparkling duets and a stirring climax. Daphnis and Chloe - Masterful characterisation as would be expected from choreographer Ashton, combined with beautiful set pieces and a simple to follow narrative. Nine Sinatra Songs - Seven couples tango, waltz and jive, gloriously celebrating Frank Sinatra, the 1950s and the seductive thrill of ballroom dancing. Dizzyingly embodying the acrobatic and sensual heights of ballroom style, this wildly popular classic by legendary US choreographer, Twyla Tharp, is a modern dance extravaganza.
