The Royal Ballet: Woolf Works

The Observer – five stars! Broadway World – five stars! The Royal Ballet Woolf Works is a must see for ballet fans across the globe. In a collage of themes from Mrs DallowayOrlandoThe Waves and Woolf’s other writings was created in 2015 for The Royal Ballet.

This Olivier-award winning ballet triptych captures the heart of Woolf’s uniquely artistic spirit. Virginia Woolf defied literary conventions to depict rich inner worlds – her heightened, startling and poignant reality.

Viewers are in for a visual treat with Moritz Junge as costume designer. His opera and ballet work includes Così fan tutte (Opera Australia), Cavalleria rusticana/Pagliacci (Metropolitan Opera, New York), Les Troyens, Aida and The Tempest (Royal Opera), and Don Carlo (Bolshoi) to name but a few. He designed costumes for the London 2012 Paralympics opening ceremony and was an overall winner of the Linbury Prize for Stage Design.

Resident English Choreographer Sir Wayne McGregor, was appointed Resident Choreographer in 2006. He is the Royal Ballet’s first from a contemporary dance background and leads a luminous artistic team to evoke Woolf’s signature stream of consciousness writing style in this immense work that rejects traditional narrative structures.
