Speed Of Light: Three Brilliant Dance Works
Three modern day classics performed by our national ballet company.
Overview
Speed of Light will be a combination of three larger-than-life contemporary classic ballets works showcasing the energy and precision of the Royal New Zealand Ballet. An opportunity to admire the artistic leadership of Francesco Ventriglia who has only been at the helm since 2014.
The three works are as follows.
Andonis Foniadakis’s Selon Désir - Created for Geneva Ballet in 2004, it’s a seductive, gorgeous synthesis of colour, light, music and movement; William Forsythe’s In the Middle, Somewhat Elevated, a high voltage, daring, and shocking piece described by The Guardian as "the work that changed ballet forever"; Alexander Ekman’s Cacti has taken the dance world by storm since its premiere in 2010. Daredevil virtuosity and split second timing with a playful wit. RNZB is joined onstage by the New Zealand String Quartet for this work.
