Behind the scenes - Raymonda

For the first time in the Netherlands, we are presenting our own production of Marius Petipa’s legendary ballet Raymonda; a sample sheet of classical ballet technique, which is famed for its wonderful character dances. Associate artistic director Rachel Beaujean – assisted by a team that includes Ted Brandsen and Grigori Tchitcherine – is creating a completely new version of this masterpiece of the Russian ballet. The choreographic splendour will be retained, but the story will have an exciting new twist.
