The Bolshoi Ballet’s magnificent staging of Le Corsaire by the outstanding Russian choreographer, Alexei Ratmansky, has proved an extraordinary international success. Set on the banks of the Ionian Sea against a climate of political unrest between the Greeks and the Turks, this exotic ballet contains all the ingredients of a traditional Russian spectacular - love, intrigue, deception, a splendid shipwreck, a harem and a kidnap. A perfect vehicle for the Bolshoi dancers’ exuberant energy.
