Our guide to this performance
What you'll hear
We expect this performance to explore themes of resilience, influence, and feminine authority through a sequence of movements tailored for the Royal Opera House stage. While the specific list of works and composers has not yet been confirmed, you can anticipate a programme that utilizes the physicality of the dancers to interpret various facets of the female experience. In such themed showcases, the evening is often shaped to move from historical reflections to more contemporary expressions of agency. Listen for the ways the musical accompaniment interacts with the choreography to heighten the emotional weight of each piece. You will likely see a contrast between moments of intense, concentrated energy and sequences of fluid grace, all designed to illuminate the impact women have made on the art form. Once the full programme is announced, we will be able to provide further detail on the individual choreographers and the specific narrative arcs they have chosen to present.
