Innovation in the Ballet World
GeogPod @ The Leys School - A podcast by The Leys School Geography Department
Categories:
This week, we had the privilege of speaking to the most esteemed artistic directors in the ballet industry: Kevin O’Hare CBE, Director of The Royal Ballet since 2012; and David Nixon OBE, Artistic Director of Northern Ballet since 2001. They spoke on their individual experiences in the ballet world, explaining ways in which they innovate in a highly traditional institution. We discuss the pandemic and its impact on the performance sector, asking if either of them had changed some of their practices and future plans.
