English National Ballet Christmas Season

Thursday November 13, 2008
With 67 top quality dancers from 20 countries, a full symphony orchestra and glittering sets and costumes, English National Ballet brings the best elements of the West End together in each of its productions. This December, the Company returns to the London Coliseum with the muchloved Christmas favorite The Nutcracker, as well as The Sleeping Beauty and, in a new production for English National Ballet, the tragic love story Manon. I saw The Nutcracker last year and plan to see The Sleeping Beauty this season.

Family Matinees
English National Ballet continues to encourage young people to see ballet by offering child friendly performances during the Coliseum season. These performances are open to children under five and all children under 16 come free. These performances are on 11 December, 18 December and 6 January at 2.30pm.
