RUINATION to be Presented by The Royal Ballet & Lost Dog
Performances will run 2 December – 4 January at Linbury Theatre.
The Royal Ballet and Lost Dog present the first revival of Ruination, an alternative Christmas dance show taking place throughout the festive period. Melding dance comedy and theatre, Lost Dog’s Artistic Director Ben Duke is known for his witty and inventive reinterpretations of the classics. This Christmas the company retells the Greek myth of Medea and her relationship with Jason – he’s much shorter than you’d expect, and it’s possible she didn’t murder her children – as an alternative festive show about how love and forgiveness are not always the answer.
Presented in the intimate Linbury Theatre, Ruination takes place in the underworld of Hades while up above on the Main Stage of the Royal Opera House, The Royal Ballet’s enchanting production of Cinderella returns.
This witty production cleverly links the two stages of the Royal Opera House in a unique and humorous way. Featuring six dancers, live musicians, singers and much more.
