Iconic but flawed: La Bayadère the Royal Ballet
La Bayadère: Kingdom of the Shades scene Artists of The Royal Ballet © 2018 ROH. Photographed by Bill Cooper Petipa/Makarova/Minkus/Lanchbery La Bayadère; Royal Ballet Reviewed by Robert Hugill on 9 November 2018 Revival of Petipa's Orientalist fantasy with its iconic 'Kingdom of the Shades' sceneBallet is a curious art-form, with few other genres would we accept as standard that what we see is the work of a number of different hands, based on the choreographer's original (just think how art historians obsess over whether a painting is by an artist, attributed or studio, though the process is accept to a limited extent in music, just think Cherubini's Medea).

I attended one of the early performances and was bowled over by the combination of choreographic textual fidelity (based on the Stepanov notations of the ballet brought out from Russia in 1919 by Nicholas Grigorievich Sergeyev), and designs by Yolanda Sonnabend which hardly looked like ballet at all. Now the Royal Ballet has revealed a new production created by Liam Scarlett with designs by John MacFarlane. We caught the performance on Friday 1 June 2018 with Marianela Nunez as Odette/Odile, and Vadim Muntagirov as Siegfried, conducted by Koen Kessels.
