Clasical ballet will meet Bollywood when La Bayadère comes to town this August.
Created in 2010 for the 40th anniversary of the Houston Ballet, La Bayadère follows the forbidden love between a temple dancer and a warrior. One of Bollywood’s brightest stars, Australian born Pallavi Sharda will return home to perform in the show. She will be joined by the American Ballet Theatre’s Gillian Murphy, who will make her debut with The Australian Ballet during the show’s Sydney season.
La Bayadère will run from Thursday November 6 to Saturday November 22 at the Opera House’s Joan Sutherland Theatre. Bookings are available from The Australian Ballet’s website.
