In 2010, The Australian Ballet begins the three-year countdown to its 50th birthday with a feast of dance and music. Highlights of the season include The Silver Rose, a full-length Australian premiere from Graeme Murphy, plus the very special encore season of Peter Wright’s magical and very traditional production of The Nutcracker. There’s also the return of family favourite Coppélia; Edge of night, a sophisticated showcase of Australian choreography; and the fashion-inspired Bodytorque. à la mode. All performances are accompanied by the Australian Opera and Ballet Orchestra, playing the music of Tchaikovsky, Handel, Rachmaninov, Carl Vine and Gerard Brophy.
