This is a screening of The Royal Ballet's production of Manon, Kenneth MacMillan's 1974 adaptation of Abbé Prévost's novel. Set in 18th-century Paris, it follows Manon, torn between love for the student Des Grieux and the temptations of wealth in a morally corrupt society. The ballet features Jules Massenet's score and Nicholas Georgiadis's designs, and the screening runs 165 minutes with two intervals and no trailers beforehand.
