Paris Opera Ballet: La Fille mal gardée
Screening at PROSPECT - 11.00am Sun 23 Jun and 12.00pm Wed 26 Jun 2024
Frederick Ashton’s virtuoso rendition of Dauberval's 18th Century classic "La Fille mal gardée" (The Wayward Daughter) is a masterpiece. Its lasting popularity is not merely due to the perfect fluidity of the choreography, but also to the irresistible charm of the characters, brought to life with humour and subtlety. Be it in the farmyard or the cornfield, the hearts of Lise and Colas search for - and eventually find - each other, and in the manner of a musical, their delightful story will carry you away with its whimsy and smiles.
