Performed by the Russian State Ballet of Siberia and accompanied by the Russian State Ballet Orchestra. 

Shakespeare’s tale of primal passion and timeless tragedy is brought to life by Prokofiev’s soaring score, set in bustling Renaissance Verona and with an emotionally charged choreography that befits the world’s greatest love story.  From the grandeur of the masked ball to the intimacy of the lovers’ balcony, this star-crossed story of duels, bitter family feuds and love that cannot be, is unmissable.

The critics said: "Colourful costumes, fantastic setting and amazing ballet."

"It is always a pleasure to bring the unique traditions of Russian Ballet to British audiences. Touring across the UK with a full company of dancers as well as highly skilled musicians is always exciting, for me, it is very special to have the power of a symphony orchestra bringing the choreography to life on stage," Sergei Bobrov, Artistic Director

Performed by the Russian State Ballet of Siberia and accompanied by the Russian State Ballet Orchestra.

The greatest romantic ballet of all time is brought to life by Tchaikovsky’s haunting and unforgettable score. From the impressive splendour of the Palace ballroom to the moon-lit lake where swans glide in perfect formation, this compelling tale of tragic romance has it all. From Odile, the temptress in black tutu as she seduces the Prince by spinning with captivating precision to the spellbound purity of the swan queen, Odette as she flutters with emotional intensity, the dual role of Odette/Odile is one of ballet’s most unmissable technical challenges.

The critics said: "The production is a triumph."

Performed by the Russian State Ballet of Siberia and accompanied by the Russian State Ballet Orchestra.

This most famous of fantasy ballets for all the family begins as night falls on Christmas Eve.  As snowflakes fall outside, the warm glow of the open fire sends flickering shadows across the boughs of the Christmas tree and all the presents beneath. When midnight strikes we are swept away to a fairy-tale world where nothing is quite as it seems, toy dolls spring to life off the set, the Mouse-king and his mouse-army battle with the Nutcracker Prince and we travel through the Land of Snow to an enchanted place where the magic really begins...

The critics said… 
‘…the scenery turned the stage into a winter wonderland’

But even after all this time, we are still growing, and this new decade and new chapter for Diversity is sure to be something even more special than the last. I truly do believe that we are all connected in mores ways than one and I cannot wait to bring this to life on stage."

Statement from Oti Mabuse:
"We have made the difficult decision to postpone my I Am Here tour until 2022. I would have loved to tour my first ever solo show this year but, as we can't be certain yet that we could present the show safely in the current climate, and the months of preperation that are needed ahead of it, it felt right to push it back to ensure that we can put on the best show possible for you.

I'm so grateful to the theatres and box office staff who are working extremely hard to reschedule so many productions, so please do support your local theatre once they open up again!

Thank you to everyone who has booked tickets, I promise that I Am Here will be worth the wait, and i'm so excited to show you next year what i've been working on".
