From 12 – 21 April 2018, English National Ballet will present the world premiere of a new work by one of the most revered choreographers working today, William Forsythe, his first creation for a UK ballet company in over 20 years.

“For a while now I have wanted to dedicate a programme to the abstract, neoclassical style of ballet that is born out of America” – says Tamara Rojo. “It gives me great pleasure to now be doing so with a new work created especially for us by the genius that is William Forsythe.”
