Ballet Cymru 40*

*Outstanding Dance Made in Wales

Come and join Ballet Cymru to celebrate its 40th birthday with an inspiring evening of brilliant dance made in Wales.

Ballet Cymru will be presenting Woven, using music by Welsh harpist Catrin Finch in collaboration with Irish violinist Aoife Nί Bhriain.

Artistic Director of Phoenix Dance Theatre, Marcus J Willis, will exhibit his trademark humour and seamless musicality in an outstanding new work created especially for the exceptional dancers of Ballet Cymru, Sensible Co-Existence.

Ballet, music and contemporary dance faultlessly fuse in an evening of creative excellence. An unforgettable night of brilliant dance made in Wales.

A male dancer is shirtless and in skin-coloured shorts. He balances on his left leg with his right up to his side, bent at the knee. His arms are up in the air, creating a curved silhouette. There are also three other dancers, one female and two male, pictured in the background and they are stood still, looking out.
Seven dancers stand on a black stage. They are wearing little clothing - the men are shirtless with small shorts on and the woman wear tight leotards. They are stood in a staggered line with their feet together, arms down at their sides and they are looking out, straight forward.
