Royal Ballet and OperaLove, after everything 💔 By the final act of Kenneth MacMillan’s Manon, Manon and Des Grieux have lost everything but each other. Far from the glittering salons of Paris, their last pas de deux unfolds in the Louisiana wilderness as Manon’s life begins to fade. MacMillan’s choreography lays bare the love at the heart of the story, while Massenet’s music carries the duet towards its devastating final silence. 📅 Manon returns to our Main Stage from 13 October. 🎥 Natalia Osipova and Reece Clarke #TheRoyalBallet #Manon #KennethMacMillan #Ballet #RoyalBalletAndOpera
