Northern Ballet Theatre's typically imaginative dance-drama update on the classic ballet Giselle. Set in an unnamed society under martial law rather than , the usual rosy-cheeked peasant community, it has the added kudos of being ; the last show directed by recently deceased NBT luminary Christopher Gable. Look out for news of Carmen, NBT's first major production without Gable, at Edinburgh's Festival Theatre in the summer.
