Ballet Black in Rehearsal

Awesome neoclassical ensemble Ballet Black is premiering a new version of Orpheus by William Tuckett at the Linbury Studio Theatre this Wednesday. Having seen the first choreographic stages last November we had the opportunity to catch up with the company a few days ago and take some new shots of rehearsals, see costume fittings and observe how the entire piece comes together. Orpheus was specially commissioned to celebrate Ballet Black’s 10th anniversary:

With many thanks to Cassa Pancho and Will Tuckett.
