![handbill [Roland Petit's La Chauve-souris]](../../../season/s298/images/bill298.jpg)
Master of modern ballet Roland Petit's charming La Chauve-souris (The Bat)
returns to the New National Theatre! And if the word "bat" makes you think of
that supreme masterpiece of Viennese operettas, Die Fledermaus, with its
effervescent overture bubbling like fine champagne-you would be correct. La
Chauve-souris is a free reinterpretation of Die Fledermaus as a cheerful
ballet spectacle infused with stylish esprit for which Petit is known. There is
delightful dancing throughout, to the brilliant music of Johann Strauss II, including
a nightclub scene with dancing waiters and a cancan line, and of course the finale
features a gorgeous Viennese waltz. It is a masterpiece that gives Petit-a wizard
of stagecraft well-versed in all forms of entertainment, including musicals and
revues in addition to ballet-a chance to give it everything he's got. When La
Chauve-souris debuted at the New National Theatre in 2002, the audiences were
immediately enthralled by Petit's sorcery. So please, enjoy this intoxicating
experience once again. It is a lovely ballet that will have you in an elegantly
happy mood from the instant the curtain goes up.
