Performance NotesAcclaimed as one of the most extraordinary dancers of his generation, following his retirement from classical ballet Carlos Acosta will perform a selection of other favourite and specially-commissioned pieces in a wonderful programme marking his thirty years as a dancer.

During a remarkable career, Carlos has been hailed by the critics, won countless awards and thrilled audiences the world over.

The programme includes Christopher Bruce’s Rooster with a soundtrack of classic Rolling Stones songs; Mermaid created for Carlos Acosta by acclaimed choreography Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui; the UK premiere of Goyo Montero’s Alrededor no hay nada and Carmen with choreography by Carlos Acosta, which thrillingly brings the passion and heat of Bizet’s gorgeous melodies to life.

Carlos is joined by Acosta Danza and accompanied by a live orchestra.
