English National Ballet: Le Corsaire
THIS EVENT ENDED ON THE 14TH JANUARY 2020
Nearby

Expect a swashbuckling romp as English National Ballet present Le Corsaire at the London Coliseum, successfully staged here in 2016. The 19th century Russian swashbuckling dance-drama based on the poem The Corsair by Lord Byron showcases some of the most bravura male dancing in the ballet repertoire. The ballet is in three acts, telling the story of Medora, a young Greek girl, who seized by Conrad the pirate who takes her to his grotto and declares his love for her. The staging by Anna-Marie Holmes features sets and costumes by Hollywood film designer Bob Ringwood (Batman, Alien 3, Star Trek Nemesis, AI and Troy) with music by Adolphe Adam, Leo Delibes and Prince Oldenbourg. It all adds up to "a show that feels very much like a one-stop antidote to the mid-January blues" (The Telegraph).
