Breakthrough!
Stuttgart Ballet is marking the centenary of Weimar 1919 in which two major events, regarded as political and artistic breakthroughs in German history, took place, with three world premieres. Weimar 1919 saw Germany’s first democratic constitution declared, the monarchy abolished and basic liberties for women established. Weimar 1919 is also recognised for the founding of the Bauhaus school. In a co-production with the National Theatre Weimar, Stuttgart Ballet will present new ballets by Nanine Linning, Katarzyna Kozielska and Edward Clug at the Play House in Stuttgart on 28 March. The triple bill, entitled, Breakthrough!, will also be performed at the National Theatre in Weimar on 6 April – the same day as the opening of the new Bauhaus Museum. Subsequent performances will take place at the Play House on 16, 24, 29 April and 4, 6, 9 July. www.stuttgart-ballet.de

BIRMINGHAM ROYAL BALLET
With the departure of long-serving director David Bintley this summer and the arrival of Carlos Acosta in January 2020, Birmingham Royal Ballet is embarking on a new era. The 2019-20 season is representative of the transition period and starts off with David Bintley and Galina Samsova’s production of Giselle (25 September – 2 November). This is followed by a world premiere by Queensland Ballet’s Jack Lister, in a bill with Cathy Marston’s The Suit (performed by Ballet Black) and Twyla Tharp’s Nine Sinatra Songs, which will be presented in Birmingham and London (19 September - 30 October). Sir Peter Wright’s Swan Lake returns from 29 January – 4 April, and then the change of direction is marked with the company premiere of Acosta’s Don Quixote (19 - 27 June) in its first UK performances outside London.
