Danced by three star-dancers in the main roles and a company that ranks among the best in the world, it guarantees first class entertainment. George Balanchine?s A Midsummer Night?s Dream is the summery counterpart to his Christmassy Nutcracker: Ist youthful charm and light esprit, the ease of transition between the realm of Oberon?s fairy kingdom, the aristocratic world of the Athenian court, the tit-for-tat of the bourgeois lovers and the artisans? provincial theatre and the “free spirit” Puck, makes it a ballet for the whole family and a joy to watch. The whole production with its fantastic costumes, the fairy-tale scenery and the wonderful dancing is like an unearthly dream in itself.
