The National Theatre

Senior cycle V

The subtitle of this group could be "Transformation from Girl to Woman" or "First Encounter with Love." We'll start with an adaptation of Valérie and Her Week of Wonders by the Lantern of Magic ensemble, featuring outstanding performances by the lead actors. This will be followed by Mozart's Don Giovanni, narrating the story of the incorrigible libertine. The premiere of the group is a ballet adaptation of Manon Lescaut choreographed by Kenneth MacMillan, which will immerse us in Manon's fate, longing for love and youth. Finally, Beauty reveals the tender soul within the terrifying beast, reminding us that love is everyone's desire.
