Provocative performer Meow Meow and Royal Ballet principal Laura Morera star in a thrilling new re-staging of Kenneth MacMillan's extraordinary version of the Kurt Weill-Bertolt Brecht 'ballet with songs', Seven Deadly Sins, paired with a set of songs from Weill and Brecht's The Threepenny Opera, directed by legendary ballerina Viviana Durante and developed in association with Deborah MacMillan.
Join enigmatic beauty Anna, and a cast of twenty singers, dancers and guest Royal Ballet principals, as she dances through seven American cities. Can she resist the moral corruption that she encounters as she struggles to help her family? Or will she succumb to the Seven Deadly Sins?
Strictly limited season in our beautifully atmospheric Hall from 8 - 18 May.
All proceeds will go toward developing future work for the Viviana Durante Company (registered charity).
