The performance features some of his favourite pieces from the classical repertoire, including extracts of Vaganova’s Diana & Acteon, Bournonville’s La Sylphide, MacMillan’s Winter Dreams and Balanchine’s Agon. These performances, his last classical ballet shows at the London Coliseum – home to many of his greatest triumphs, will give audiences the chance to see Carlos perform alongside guests from The Royal Ballet.
