Book Direct with the Owner at The Australian Ballet with Mackay Tourism in Southbank, for all your Attraction and travel needs.
Founded in 1962, The Australian Ballet is one of the country's flagship arts companies. Each year the company performs classical and contemporary works by major Australian and international choreographers, and new commissions that explore the development and future of this dynamic art form. The 2015 season ‘A Year of Beauty’ promises to bring elements of beauty, magic and romance to the stage. There are happy endings for Cinderella and her Prince, and for the fairies and immortals in Frederick Ashton’s, The Dream. There is redemption through tragedy for Siegfried and Odette, Albrecht and Giselle. There is also the sharp-edged, modern beauty of Balanchine and Stravinsky, Tharp and Glass, and a new work by Tim Harbour, each capturing the contemporary splendour of its time. Finally Artistic Director David McAllister brings to life the much-anticipated world premiere of his new production The Sleeping Beauty- set to be the crowning moment of the year.
