  • Choreographer Arthur Pita and The Royal Ballet rehearse The Wind ahead of its world premiere, filmed as part of #WorldBalletDay 2017. Find out more at www.roh.org.uk
    Arthur Pita has forged a distinctive career in British dance; his disquieting narrative works tell dark and strange stories through a vivid, visceral language of movement. His award-winning adaptation of Kafka’s Metamorphosis in 2011 for the Linbury Studio Theatre was a triumph. As well as creating works for his own company Pita has been commissioned by companies and figures from Dance East to Natalia Osipova - creating a body of work whose strangeness and imaginativeness have earned Pita the nickname ‘the David Lynch of dance’.
    Pita now makes his main-stage debut for The Royal Ballet with The Wind. He takes as his inspiration Dorothy Scarborough’s controversial 1925 novel, now considered a seminal work of Texan literature, and the 1928 silent movie classic it inspired, which starred Lillian Gish. The ballet comes with a new score by Frank Moon, whose fantastical, inventive music has accompanied most of Pita’s work.

    • @hellothere9791
      @hellothere9791 4 роки тому +2

      Betta Splendens dancer diets are mostly calorie rich, vitamin rich, filling foods. Dancers are athletes and we need enough energy to get us through an 8-12 hour day of rehearsals, for professionals at least. Of course the demand for skinny ballet dancers is causing some to starve themselves tho...

      Ironically, it's probably because, from an outsider's perspective, they don't seem to be overly preoccupied about diversity (in terms of deliberately excluding or including various ethnicities) - literally the only thing that matters is how good you are. The Royal Ballet has a reputation of being the best ballet company in the UK and one of the best in the world; if you have the ability and skill to prove you belong there, then at that point it really doesn't matter what colour your skin is or where you're from.

      @@overlydramaticpanda True - but there are those that find this problematic. Every now and again you'll find the odd comment stating "it's good to finally see "Europeans" on stage at the English Royal Ballet". And they are showing up more frequently - even in live streams monitored BY the RB.
