The Royal Ballet: Manon

A screening of The Royal Ballet's production of Kenneth MacMillan's Manon, a tragic tale of love and money in 18th-century Paris.

Set in the hedonistic underworld of 18th-century Paris, this production follows Manon, who is caught between her love for the student Des Grieux and the riches promised by Parisian society. It is Kenneth MacMillan's 1974 adaptation of Abbé Prévost's novel. The performance features Jules Massenet's score and designs by Nicholas Georgiadis.
