About
In few words:
The Dante Project, which premiered in London in October 2021, is today entering the Paris Opera’s repertoire. To a colourful orchestral score by Thomas Adès, British choreographer Wayne McGregor presents a three‑act ballet inspired by the alternately chilling and sunlit landscapes of the Divine Comedy. Written in the 14th century by Dante, this seminal poem of the Italian language recounts an initiatory journey through Hell, Purgatory and Paradise. McGregor brings this medieval Christian fantasy to life through dance: a young woman, Beatrice, embodies a promise of love and hope as the chorepgrapher reconstructs a narrative arc taking the audience on a nonstop journey where sound, movement and light form the substance of a mysterious and changing constellation.
