ROH : MACMILLAN CELEBRATED (U)

THE ROYAL BALLET: MACMILLAN CELEBRATED


Choreography Kenneth Macmillan


Danses Concertantes

Music Igor Stravinsky

Cast Mayara Magri, Giacomo Rovero, Taisuke Nakao


Different Drummer

Music Anton Webern/ Arnold Schoenberg

Cast Francesca Hayward, Marcelino Sambé, Alexander Campbell


Requiem

Music Gabriel Fauré

Cast Lauren Cuthbertson, Marianela Nuñez, Lukas B. Brendsrod, William Bracewell, Joseph Sissens



Danses Concertantes, commissioned by Ninette de Valois in 1955, was MacMillan’s first major work. An early sign of the incredible artistic output that would follow, the work’s critical success spurred MacMillan to abandon performing in favour of choreography. It is followed by Different Drummer, MacMillan’s complex and haunting balletic interpretation of Woyzeck, Georg Büchner's play about a soldier’s descent into madness. The mixed programme concludes with Requiem, his 1976 work for Stuttgart Ballet, created in memory of its late artistic director, MacMillan’s friend and former Royal Ballet dancer and choreographer John Cranko.  


Live in cinemas: Tuesday 9 April 2024, 7.15pm BST

Running time 195 minutes (including two intervals)

EXHIBITION ON SCREEN : JOHN SINGER SARGENT (TBC)

JOHN SINGER SARGENT



Directed by David Bickerstaff

John Singer Sargent is known as the greatest portrait artist of his era.  What made his ‘swagger’ portraits remarkable was his power over his sitters, what they wore and how they were presented to the audience. Through interviews with curators, contemporary fashionistas and style influencers, Exhibition on Screen’s film will examine how Sargent’s unique practice has influenced modern art, culture and fashion.

Filmed at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Tate Britain, London, the exhibition reveals Sargent’s power to express distinctive personalities, power dynamics and gender identities during this fascinating period of cultural reinvention. Alongside 50 paintings by Sargent sit stunning items of clothing and accessories worn by his subjects, drawing the audience into the artist’s studio.

Sargent’s sitters were often wealthy, their clothes costly, but what happens when you turn yourself over to the hands of a great artist? The manufacture of public identity is as controversial and contested today as it was at the turn of the 20th century, but somehow Sargent’s work transcends the social noise and captures an alluring truth with each brush stroke.

Step into the glittering world of fashion, scandal and shameless self-promotion that made John Singer Sargent the painter who defined an era.

Explore the unique creative process of the late 19th century’s favourite portrait artist and the way in which his portraits captured the spirit of a vibrant and rapidly changing age.

Exercise Tiger: Concert

EXERCISE TIGER 80TH ANNIVERSARY CONCERT


With the Celtic Male Ensemble, Donna Marie Broomfield (soprano), and soloists from BRNC volunteer band


This concert marks the 80th anniversary of Exercise Tiger, the ill-fated rehearsal at Slapton Sands by American forces practising for the D-Day landings on Utah Beach, Normandy, in June 1944.


The first half of the concert focuses on remembrance and gratitude and includes Ensemble songs such as ‘Tell My Father’, ‘For the Fallen’ and ‘Mansions of the Lord’, the ‘Last Post’ played on the balcony and soprano solos from the era, such as ‘Berkeley Square’ and ‘The White Cliffs of Dover’.


The second half focuses on the freedom which those who fought and died in D-Day, in WW2, WW1 and other conflicts have given us, along with hope for the future. Items in this half include ‘Stars’ from ‘Les Misérables’, ‘Fascinatin’ Rhythm’ and ‘The World in Union’ as a soprano solo with military drumming.


The Celtic Male Ensemble, a vocal group from Cornwall of around 16 singers, directed by Alastair Taylor, were formed in 2014. They have performed all over Cornwall from the Minack Theatre to Truro Cathedral and were named Best UK Choir at the 2019 International Male Choral Festival. Tonight they cross the Tamar to give their first concert in Devon.


Joining the Ensemble will be guest soprano Donna Marie Broomfield (a Friday Recitals’ favourite) and soloists from the ever popular BRNC Concert Band, playing flute, trumpet, clarinet and military drum.


Proceeds from the concert will go to The Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal and The Flavel.

The concert is being organized by Helen Deakin, a former Trustee of the Flavel and currently Classical Music Co-ordinator

HAMLET (12A)

Two-time Academy Award nominee and Shakespearian titan, Ian McKellen, stars in this thrilling and uniquely modern take on The Bard’s classic tragedy. The screening will include an exclusive recorded Q&A with Ian McKellen and Director Sean Mathias.


A tale of revenge that has stood the test of time, Shakespeare’s classic tragedy is reimagined for the modern day as a gripping psychological thriller! Transcending the confines of the stage in a uniquely modern take, the film utilises nearly every room of the Theatre Royal Windsor to transform it into the immortal Elsinore Castle, from basement dungeon to roof-top battlement.

Ian McKellen - reprising his lead role as Hamlet, a man who descends into madness as he seeks vengeance against his uncle for the apparent murder of his father - leads a stellar cast including stage and screen legend, Steven Berkoff, and stars of the critically acclaimed, recent stage cast of ‘Hamlet’:

Frances Barber (King Lear, Chekhov’s The Seagull), Jonathan Hyde (King Lear, Titanic, Crimson Peak),

Jenny Seagrove and BAFTA-winner Francesca Annis, bringing their iconic roles to life in this

compelling new film adaptation.

Reg Meuross

Folk at The Flavel: Reg Meuross

A true modern troubadour


‘The remarkable singer-songwriter that is Reg Meuross’ – BBC Radio 3

Award-winning Reg Meuross was introduced onto the stage of the Albert Hall by Mike Harding as ‘one of this country’s finest’ and is a true modern troubadour, representing contemporary English folk writing at its best. Captivating audiences with his beautiful tenor voice, and with breadth and depth of material that is unparalleled, Reg has toured extensively for decades across the UK, Europe, North America and the Antipodes.

Masterfully accompanying himself on his ‘44 Martin six-string guitar, harmonica, tenor guitar, banjo and dulcimer, witnessing a Reg Meuross performance is to experience a journey into the heart, soul and songs of one of England’s most celebrated writers. Stories that need to be told; struggles that need to be known; injustice that needs to be uncovered; social conscience that needs to be celebrated – his music has an unrivalled power to reach and move the listener. After 14 critically-acclaimed albums, Reg continues to prove how highly relevant his songs are, whilst reaching new audiences with consistently spellbinding performances.


Reg is currently touring with song cycle Stolen From God, focusing on the transatlantic slave trade – uncovering its’ hidden history from a South West England perspective.


Reg has also recorded Fire & Dust, due for release Autumn 2024, a song cycle that delves into the life story of Woody Guthrie. A  journey into the heart and soul of one of America’s finest folk musicians. Highlighting racism, bigotry, corruption and inequality.

Wicked Little Letters (15)

A 1920s English seaside town bears witness to a dark and absurd scandal in this riotous mystery comedy. Based on a stranger than fiction true story, the film follows two neighbours: deeply conservative local Edith Swan and rowdy Irish migrant Rose Gooding. When Edith and fellow residents begin to receive wicked letters full of unintentionally hilarious profanities, foul-mouthed Rose is charged with the crime. The anonymous letters prompt a national uproar, and a trial ensues. However, as the town’s women - led by Police Officer Gladys Moss - begin to investigate the crime themselves, they suspect that something is amiss, and Rose may not be the culprit after all.
