Madam

An evening on Ninette de Valois, who founded the company and was called Madam in it.

Talk

At Royal Opera House.

De Valois (1898-2001) built a national company, a school and an audience for ballet in a country that had none, and inside the building nobody used her name. The evening mixes excerpts from the ballets she made - The Rake's Progress, Checkmate, Job - with conversation and film about what she did and how the company still works the way she set it up. Kevin O'Hare and Lauren Cuthbertson put it together.

Two nights in the Linbury, and it is sold out; returns are the only way in.
