Manon (The Royal Ballet)

Overview

The Royal Ballet performs a production of Kenneth MacMillan's ballet: Manon. In decadent 18th century Paris, the young, beautiful and naive Manon (Tamara Rojo) is torn between a life of privilege and luxury with the wealthy Monsieur GM or love with the poor student Des Grieux (Carlos Acosta). Manon has become one the Royal Ballet's signature works since its creation in 1974.
