The Dutch National Ballet's new full-length production of Don Quichot has been created for the company by Ratmansky. The ballet is an audience favourite: a dazzling display of high spirits, virtuosity and Spanish temperament. The flamboyant leaps, dizzying pirouettes and crisp pointe work that are standard features of the production give the performers every opportunity to show off their technical prowess. But at the same time, the comic story based on Cervantes' masterpiece makes strong demands on the dancers' acting abilities. In this unique production, the roles of Don Quichot and Sancho Panza are played by actors: Peter de Jong and Karel de Rooij, who are a well-known theatrical double-act (Mini and Maxi) in the Netherlands.
Ratmansky has drawn inspiration for his production from the libretto of the first version of Don Quichot by Marius Petipa, created in 1869, adding his own new elements and choreography to the ballet. The design, by the renowned French designer Jérôme Kaplan, refers to the time of Cervantes.
