The New National Theatre Ballet Company presents "Manon," a masterpiece choreographed by Kenneth MacMillan, who is regarded as the best of British ballet. Based on the original story by Abbé Prévaux, it depicts the drama of love and destruction between a beautiful young girl, Manon, and a theology student, De Grieux, in the social disparity of 18th century France. The pas de deux, with its emotional melody by Jules Massenet and many acrobatic lifts, vividly depicts the psychology of the two girls. This performance will feature Saho Shibayama as Manon and Shogo Hayami as De Grieve, and will be accompanied by lavish live music by the Tokyo Symphony Orchestra conducted by Martin Yates, allowing the audience to enjoy this epic and beautiful love story on the stage of the Opera Palace.
