Join us to see a glittering tale of Parisian love and tragedy!
Based on the landmark 1848 novel by French author Alexandre Dumas fils, this tale of forbidden love and tragedy has inspired countless stage, operatic and film productions, including the feature film and award-winning musical Moulin Rouge!, and Verdi’s opera La Traviata.
The story follows Marguerite Gautier, regarded as the most beautiful and brazen courtesan in all of Paris and known as The Lady of the Camellias as she is never seen without her favourite flowers.
In 19th-century France, she discovers and falls in love with Armand, a young and handsome bourgeois, and embarks on a passionate romance.
Featuring sumptuous choreography, exquisite set designs and elegant costumes, this compelling production was created by distinguished British choreographer Derek Deane OBE (Strictly Gershwin).
Music by American composer Carl Davis will transport audiences to Paris.
The brilliant Shanghai Ballet was founded more than 40 years ago and is a sister company to Queensland Ballet, renowned for its classic masterpieces, contemporary ballets, and Chinese historical dance dramas.
