Sasha Waltz & Guests: Teatro Real
About the Event
Celebrate the art of the acclaimed German choreographer.
Sasha Waltz, a celebrated creator of modern dance, brings her eponymous company of dancers to the stage of the Teatro Real in a mixed program with a French theme. Stravinsky's music for the Ballets Russes and Berlioz' Roméo et Juliette are crowned by the ultimate pairing — Mallarmé and Debussy's 'Prelude to the afternoon of a faun'.
