From July 21–24, English National Ballet dance a programme of Roland Petit ballets at the London Coliseum. Petit, one of France’s most famous choreographers, worked in music hall and for Hollywood as well as in ballet, showing a Parisian sense of theatre and glamour.
ENB will be dancing Petit’s notoriously sexy Carmen (pictured by Angela Taylor), Le Jeune Homme et la Mort and L’Arlésienne. The company have kindly given us two pairs of tickets for the opening night at the Coliseum. To win, see the June issue of Dancing Times. The deadline for entries is June 30.
Tickets for this special season can be booked at eno.org or call the box office on 0871 911 0200.
