Queensland Ballet will be celebrating its milestone birthday with a “60th Anniversary Gala”, comprised of highlights from the company’s extensive back catalogue.

Queensland Ballet dancers and international guests will pay tribute to the contributions of the company’s five artistic directors: Charles Lisner OBE, Harry Haythorne, Harold Collins MBE, François Klaus and Li Cunxin AO.

The program includes excerpts from iconic works such as Charles Lisner’s Chopin pas de deux (1965), Jacqui Carroll’s Carmina Burana (1982), Harold Collins’ The Lady of the Camellias (1996) and Francois Klaus’s The Little Mermaid (2003) and Cloudland (2004). The season will culminate in Harald Lander’s homage to classical ballet, Études (1948), showcasing Queensland Ballet today, under current artistic director, Li Cunxin AO.

The “60th Anniversary Gala” runs March 20-28, 2020.
