Manon

“* * * * *... irresistible”
Sunday Telegraph

Manon is an epic ballet of love, luxury and passion. In decadent eighteenth century Paris, the young, beautiful and naïve Manon is torn between two lives; privilege and opulence with the wealthy Monsieur GM or innocent love with the penniless student Des Grieux. English National Ballet's 67 dancers perform Kenneth MacMillan’s thrilling choreography and the Company’s symphony orchestra soars through Massenet’s haunting score.

This production was made possible by the Friends of English National Ballet.

The production is two hours and 45 minutes including two intervals.
