Three Bold Works From the BRB

Triumphantly returning after the critical acclaim of entralling one-act ballet Arcadia, the Birmingham Royal Ballet presents a stunning triptych of groundbreaking works at London's Sadlers Wells this summer. The hotly anticipated program kicks off with Peter and the Wolf, a brand new work devised and choreographed by the company's first artist Ruth Brill that shakes up Prokofiev's original score with street and hip hop influences.

This is followed by a brand new Ballet Now commission piece by Dutch choreographer Didy Veldman, also set to the music of Prokofiev, and American choreographer Jessica Lang's whimsical Lyric Pieces. Created for the BRB in 2012, the Julliard School Graduate's ballet features interactive, larger-than-life set pieces that consort with exuberant dancers and the lush music of Grieg.
