The Big Picture people have news of the Birmingham Royal Ballet offering free tickets for a preview of their upcoming show, ‘Russian Steps‘ on 8 October at the Hipodrome.
The new show consists of three ballets by Russian composers:
- ‘Concerto’ is a pure dance piece from master choreographer Kenneth MacMillan.
- ‘The Firebird’ is a magical Russian fairytale in which love conquers evil.
- ‘Raymonda Act III’ is the quick-footed classical finale from a longer ballet, originally the wedding celebrations of the hero and heroine.
Which all sounds lovely and excellent. Definitely worth a go if you’ve not got anything else planned for 8 October and want to try something different.
If you want to snaffle some tickets then email your name, address and the number of tickets you want (don’t take the proverbial) to newattenders@brb.org.uk.
