LIVE FROM THE ROYAL BALLET WOOLF WORKS

WEDNESDAY 8 FEBRUARY 2017
LIVE FROM THE ROYAL BALLET
WOOLF WORKS
The first revival of Wayne McGregor’s critically acclaimed ballet triptych, inspired by the works of Virginia Woolf. The pioneering literary work of Virginia Woolf is the inspiration for multi-award-winning choreographer Wayne McGregor’s brilliant triptych for The Royal Ballet. McGregor has long been at the cutting edge of ballet, working with collaborators from across the artistic world, and in this critically acclaimed work he combines themes from three of Woolf’s landmark novels – Mrs Dalloway, Orlando and The Waves – with elements of her letters, essays and diaries. Acclaimed British composer Max Richter (Infra, Sum and Recomposed by Max Richter: Vivaldi, The Four Seasons) creates a specially commissioned score incorporating electronic and live music.
