What you'll see
The Royal Ballet broadcasts Manon live from the Royal Opera House in London, one of Kenneth MacMillan's most emblematic works, based on the novel by the Abbé Prévost. The score brings together music by Jules Massenet orchestrated by Martin Yates, and Nicholas Georgiadis's sets and costumes recreate the luxury and decadence of 18th-century Paris. Yasmine Naghdi is Manon and William Bracewell, Des Grieux; Koen Kessels conducts the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House. The story confronts the heroine with the choice between the sincere love of a student and the wealth of high society, in a three-act ballet full of passion, ambition and tragedy.
