'I didn't want sangría and bulls' — A timeless and brutal Carmen The Stage Show
-
- Uitvoerende kunst
Choreographer Johan Inger's first narrative work is a radically contemporary take on Carmen, which employs Bizet's famous score but draws on the confronting violence of Mérimée's original novella for its story. The ballet earned the Prix Benois de la Danse and is now being presented by The Australian Ballet.
Also, Victor Hugo's novel about an orphaned boy whose mouth has been cut into a perpetual grin has been adapted into a musical, The Grinning Man, and we mark the 100th anniversary of The Demon Machine, a dance work by Gertrud Bodenwieser who fled the Nazi occupation of Austria and founded the first modern dance company in Australia.
