Shakespeare's enchanted wood and vivid
characters are given a fresh new life.
In an unprecedented artistic coup, Liam
Scarlett, one of the world's most sought-after choreographers, has
created a full-length co-production for the Royal New Zealand
Ballet and Queensland Ballet.
Scarlett's witty choreography blended with
Mendelssohn's beautiful music, coupled with bold new costumes, set
design and lighting, creates a revitalised interpretation of
A Midsummer Night's Dream that will
enchant all ages.
Design by Tracy Grant Lord
(Cinderella, Romeo and Juliet)
Lighting by Kendall Smith (Giselle)
Music by Felix Mendelssohn, performed by the Christchurch Symphony
Orchestra
Conducted by Nigel Gaynor
