A perfect performance is one that creates the illusion of effortless magic and transports the audience to a higher plane. The Royal Ballet are very good at creating that illusion; but the company are also keen to lift the veil a little to give audiences a greater understanding of the everyday work behind the magic.


That’s what Insights are for. Every season a series of events in one of the Royal Opera House’s smaller venues gives an in-depth look at particular ballets and individual artists.

At the Royal Ballet School Linden Studio Theatre on 4 April at 19.30. Approx Dur.: 1 hour and 15 minutes, no interval.


– The fourth and last of the Spring Insights is called Ballet and the Body: dancers and students at different stages in their careers will debate the demands this art form puts on practitioners' bodies.
