Story for Royal Danish Ballet

The 252 year old Royal Danish Ballet enjoys an outstanding position on the international ballet scene. Obviously, a classical company has to maintain a repertoire of some breadth, and the Royal Danish Ballet is no exception, dancing pretty much everything – from Bournonville to barefoot stomps, from the abstract works of Balanchine to the action-packed, full-length performances of John Neumeier. Nevertheless, the backbone of the company at Kongens Nytorv in Copenhagen remains the works of the great August Bournonville. It is due to him that a clearly defined style of ballet was created, based on a specific set of aesthetic ideals, and having its own unique training techniques.

Now the Royal Danish Ballet is coming with all its fantastic dancers to the David H. Koch Theater with artistic director Nikolaj Hübbe, who’s more or less returning home, since he was a principal dancer with the New York City Ballet for almost 20 years.
