Summary
Scottish Ballet performs Sir Kenneth MacMillan’s choreography to the music of Franz Liszt, with Martin Yates conducting the orchestra for this production entitled The Scandal at Mayerling.
Why it's fantastic
This dark royal tragedy swaps fairy tales for a gritty historical mystery set to the intensity of Liszt’s piano music. You will witness a frantic psychological descent told through daring choreography, making it a perfect choice if you prefer your theatre with a sharp, cinematic edge and plenty of tension.
