Marguerite and Armand
Marguerite and Armand is Ashton’s beautiful and emotional retelling of a well-known story, familiar to us through Verdi’s opera La traviata. Ashton famously created this poignant ballet on Margot Fonteyn and Rudolf Nureyev in 1963, and here it is performed by guest Roberto Bolle and in her farewell performance, Zenaida Yanowsky.
