Carlos Acosta bids farewell to classical ballet with his final performances at Royal
Albert Hall for a limited run from Monday 3 – Friday 7 October 2016.
The Classical Farewell celebrates highlights from Acosta’s career which led him to become the most famous male dancer of his generation, and marks the final time for audiences to watch the ballet superstar dance classical works.
The production follows the popular format of his 2006 show Carlos Acosta with Guests of
The Royal Ballet, for which he won an Olivier Award, and A Classical Selection which
was performed at London Coliseum in December 2015 to critical acclaim. Acosta also
embarks on a UK tour to Nottingham, Birmingham, Southampton and Salford in May
2016. The Royal Albert Hall programme for The Classical Farewell features an all new
repertoire, to be announced shortly.
Acosta has thrilled audiences throughout the world with his breathtaking performances,
including principal roles in many ballets in the classical repertoire. For The Classical Farewell Acosta has put together a programme featuring some of his closest contemporaries from The Royal Ballet, presenting some of his favourite pieces from the
classical repertoire for the final time. The evening’s programme is accompanied by a live
orchestra conducted by Paul Murphy.
