Vadim Muntagirov as Florizel and Sarah Lamb as Perdita in The Royal Ballet's production of The Winter's Tale created by Christopher Wheeldon.
Shakespeare’s great romance gets a magical reimagining through the power of dance with Christopher Wheeldon’s The Winter’s Tale.
Released to widespread critical acclaim, the Royal Ballet’s 2014 production is a masterful, modern narrative ballet that includes powerful designs by Bob Crowley and music by Joby Talbot.
Now widely considered a modern classic, the ballet follows the destruction of a marriage through consuming jealousy, the abandonment of a child and a seemingly hopeless love. Yet, through remorse and regret - and after a seemingly miraculous return to life - the ending is one of forgiveness and reconciliation.
