| Description |
Stravinsky's thrilling The Rite of Spring headlines West Australian Ballet's annual season of ballet under the stars. Petr Zuska, whose Bolero and Maria's Dream captivated audiences in Quarry 2008, returns by popular demand to create a new The Rite of Spring. Stravinsky's extraordinary music shocked audiences when it premiered in 1913. Also featuring in this unmissable program are: Uwe Scholz' striking Suite No.2 (on Rachmaninov); Dolly, a contemplation of mortality from Artistic Director Ivan Cavallari; and house choreographer Timothy O'Donnell's quirky 'love triangle' ballet The Games We Play. |
