The Christchurch season of The Firebird with Paquita has been cancelled, but there’s still a way to catch the action from the comfort of your home.
It’s no secret Cityscape is pumped about Royal New Zealand Ballet’s performance of The Firebird with Paquita – just check out our wicked interview with The Firebird choreographer Loughlan Prior for an idea of how cool it is. So we were gutted to realise that the Christchurch performances had to be cancelled in the wake of the latest Covid-19 outbreak.
Never fear, our dystopian ballet fans. Keep busy practicing your Ugg Boot pirouettes until Friday August 27 when The Firebird Live in Your Living Room goes live on the RNZB website. It will be available for a few weeks, finishing on September 16.
