    January 2019 Carlos Acosta’s celebrated production of Don Quixote returns Friday 15 February – Thursday 4 April 2019 Live Cinema relay: Tuesday 19 February 2019 #ROHDonQ Federico Bonelli and Sarah Lamb in Don Quixote, ©ROH/Johan Persson, 2013 Carlos Acosta’s vibrant dance production of Miguel de Cervante’s classic tale Don Quixote returns to the Royal Opera House this Spring. Created specially for The Royal Ballet in 2013, this stunning production tells the story of the bumbling knight Don Quixote and his ever-faithful squire Sancho Panza, and their efforts to help the young lovers Kitri and Basilio. This revival features exciting debuts from Lauren Cuthbertson, Yasmine Naghdi and Mayara Magri as Kitri and Matthew Ball, Alexander Campbell and Marcelino Sambé as Basilio. Don Quixote For all Royal Opera House press releases visit www.roh.org.uk/for/press-and-media includes a number of spectacular solos and pas de deux as well as outlandish comedy and romance as the dashing Basilio steals the heart of the beautiful Kitri. Don Quixote will be live streamed to cinemas on Tuesday 19 February as part of the ROH Live Cinema Season. Carlos Acosta previously danced the role of Basilio in many productions of Don Quixote. He was invited by Kevin O’Hare Director of The Royal Ballet, to re-stage this much-loved classic in 2013. Acosta’s vibrant production evokes sunny Spain with designs by Tim Hatley who has also created productions for the National Theatre and for musicals including Dreamgirls, The Bodyguard and Shrek. Acosta’s choreography draws on Marius Petipa’s 1869 production of this classic ballet and is set to an exuberant score by Ludwig Minkus arranged and orchestrated by Martin Yates.

Proof of study will be required from dance program. You may not be an apprentice or full time member of a professional ballet company and participate in Spotlight. What’s required of me for my Ballet Preliminary 1 video audition? All students begin with a Preliminary 1 video audition.

Some examples of soloist variations that might be good choices are: Princess Florine from The Sleeping Beauty Act lll or any of The Sleeping Beauty fairies, the Peasant pas de deux from Giselle (Act I) or Cupid from Paquita, Friends of Kitri from Don Quixote (Act I), Fairy Doll, Harlequinade, Odalisques from Le Corsaire (Act I), Flames of Paris or the pas de trois from Swan Lake (Act I).

LETTER FROM THE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR Dear friends, Welcome to Encore, which we proudly present in our lovely home, Baumgartner Center for Dance. I’ve curated cherished works from our archives to celebrate all we have accomplished together this season, despite the challenges. Thank you for joining our celebration. The classical variations in this program span the most beloved scenes in the ballet world: Don Quixote, Raymonda, Giselle. You will also enjoy excerpts from both a luminary and a rising star in contemporary dance: Trey McIntyre returns with A Day in the Life and Aleix Mañé shares his ExiliO, which won our international Genesis competition. In this program, we also celebrate our friend Jimmy Gamonet, who passed earlier this year from COVID-19. Jimmy is most notable for his longtime tenure as Miami City Ballet’s founding resident choreographer and ballet master. He staged three of his works here, the most well-known being Nous Sommes, which we warmly present as an affectionate tribute to his memory. On behalf of the entire organization, I would like to thank our season sponsors, Donna and Donald Baumgartner, as well as United Performing Arts Fund, for their unwavering support. We will announce our upcoming season in only a few short weeks and hope you will join us at Marcus Performing Arts Center this fall.
