WIEN/ Staatsballett in der Staatsoper: „Manon“, revisited: Vienna State Ballet (Wiener Staatsballett), May 16th, 2026
A première can be something very exciting, but sometimes, a (good) „revival“can be even more. After meeting so many people I have not seen in quite a while (The Ballet Connoisseurs are back to watch substantious performances) and after such a long time of not seeing this ballet at the Vienna State Opera (and guessing that the coaching by Alessandra Ferri – who worked directly with Sir Kenneth MacMillan – would be outrageously brilliant), I started thinking of this evening as a very happy revival, in fact, a most fortunate one for the public.
