A Contemporary Dance Tale
French choreographer Angelin Preljocaj presents a sensational and unconventional modern ballet that reinvents the classic Grimm Brothers' fairy tale. This sensual version transforms the childhood classic into a profound adult story exploring human nature, good and evil, greed, and desire.
Star-Studded Creative Team
- Choreography: Angelin Preljocaj
- Costume Design: Jean Paul Gaultier, the fashion world's 'enfant terrible' known for dressing stars like Madonna and Leslie Cheung.
- Music: Gustav Mahler's brilliant and powerful symphonies.
- Set Design: Massive and captivating stage design.
- Performers: 24 top-tier dancers.
The choreography is imaginative, notably featuring the seven dwarfs in a blend of ballet and acrobatics. Gaultier's bold, avant-garde costumes highlight each character's symbolism, from Snow White's white gauze to the Queen's tight black dress.
A Critically Acclaimed Masterpiece
Premiered in 2008 at Lyon's Biennale de la Danse, the production won the French Crystal Globe award for Best Dance Production of the Year. It has since sold out venues worldwide, receiving critical acclaim across Europe, America, and Asia for its breakthrough interpretation.
