Summary
English National Ballet returns Rudolf Nureyev’s production of Prokofiev’s tragedy to the stage, featuring the full company performing to the composer's cinematic score.
Why it's fantastic
Prokofiev’s cinematic score brings a gritty, visceral energy to the stage that feels more like a modern drama than a traditional fairytale. You will likely recognise the heavy, rhythmic Dance of the Knights which has become a staple of television and film soundtracks over the decades.
