20th Anniversary
2017/2018 Season
OPERA HOUSE
9 Feb. - 11 Feb., 2018
Running time is approx. 2 hours 40 mins including intervals
This piece portrays an intensely human drama through the love affairs of the protagonist Hoffmann, demanding great expressiveness and artistry on the part of the dancers. As the first performance of the 2015/2016 Season, it was highly acclaimed for its elegant art, costumes and lighting designed by the Japanese staff, as well as how the National Ballet of Japan breathed new life into this masterpiece.
The love motifs are truly diverse and alluring, woven throughout the performance by the various characters, from the protagonist Hoffmann, shown from adolescence through to his latter years, the three seductive women who steal Hoffmann's heart, and the devil, who appears in different forms. Expect a fantasy of a story, romantic and luxurious yet with a touch of the forlorn, complemented by beautifully flowing and variegated music by Jacques OFFENBACH.
