San Francisco Ballet Tickets

San Francisco Ballet has a worldwide reputation for its vast and rich repertory, performed by some of the finest ballet dancers today. This autumn, they arrive in London to present three programmes over two weeks, performing some of their most popular works of recent years.

Programme A features Edwaard Liang's abstract ballet Symphonic Dances, set to Rachmaninov's last composition, George Balanchine's work for Mozart's chamber piece, Divertimento No.15 and Christopher Wheeldon's uplifting Number Nine.

Programme B brings together Wheeldon's atmospheric 2010 work Ghosts, Ashley Page's highly physical Guide to Strange Places set to music by John Adams and a triptych ballet Trio, choreographed by San Francisco Ballet artistic director Helgi Tomasson and set to Tchaikovsky's glorious Souvenir de Florence.

Programme C is comprised of Mark Morris' Beaux, Yuri Possokhov's  interpretation of Prokofiev's Classical Symphony, Possokhov's multimedia dance theatre work RAkU, based on the burning of Kyoto's Golden Pavilion in 1950; and Christopher Wheeldon's ethereal Within the Golden Hour, set to  music by Ezio Bosso and Vivaldi.
