Ride The Beast 2007
Choreographer Stephen Petronio
Music - T.B.C.
After wowing audiences with passionate performances of MiddleSexGorge, Scottish Ballet is delighted to be working with critically acclaimed American choreographer Stephen Petronio for a second time. Famously controversial, Petronio's work is challanging, provocative and truly unforgetable, and the world premiere of Ride The Beast will be no exception. Expect the unexpected.
For M.G. - The Movie 1991
Choreographer Trisha Brown
Music - Alvin Curran
An abstract piece from the New York choreographer, built on the idea of performance itself and what it means to perform, For M.G. - The Movie is an absorbing piece, drawing the audience into the movements with a hypnotic, almost magnetic force.
Fearful Symmetries 1994
Choreographer Ashley Page
Music - John Adams
Originally choreographed for The Royal Ballet, the Edinburgh International Festival marks the Scottish premiere of Artistic Director Ashley Page’s hugely successful Olivier award-winning Fearful Symmetries.
Set to the backdrop of Antony McDonald’s geometrically Rothko-esque design, Fearful Symmetries is an exhilarating celebration of pure dance, and a compelling interpretation of John Adams’ wonderfully surging minimalist score.
