Akram Khan: Giselle

Акрам Хан: Жизель

In this acclaimed version by Akram Khan, the greatest Romantic ballet and its story of love, betrayal, and redemption are reimagined. The ominous, gothic score by Vincenzo Lamagna is adapted from Adolphe Adam’s original, and performed by English National Ballet Philharmonic.

Sets and costumes by Academy Award-winning designer Tim Yip and atmospheric lighting design by Mark Henderson conjure up a condemned factory and the vengeful ghosts that appear in its shadows.
