Louise Midjord:
"Othello"
Pontus Lidberg:
"Exit, Pursued by a Bear"
John Neumeier:
"A Midsummer Night's Dream" (new cast)
"Gala performance for the Queen"
April is Shakespeare month for the Royal Danish Ballet. Not only is the repertoire dominated by Neumeier "A midsummer night's dream" two new Shakespeare related ballets Louise Midjords take on "Othello" with a young cast and Pontus Lidberg's "Exit, pursued by a bear" with a senior cast, the gala for the Queen's 70 birthday also included the pas de deux from "Romeo and Juliet". Can one get too much Shakespeare is a reasonable question to ask, but Can one get good choreography is an even more relevant one.
