White Darkness & The Lavender Follies

Nacho Duato composed the one-act ballet, " WHITE DARKNESS ", as a requiem for the untimely loss of a sister. The result is a masterpiece which, according to critics, has “reached impossible heights” in the landscape of modern art. As for Joseph Hernandez, an american familiar choreographer of Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo, the audience of Monaco remembers its creaking aesthetic universe that is always a hit with the quality of movement and this "urgency to live" that he claims. This summer, he creates " THE LAVENDER FOLLIES " for Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo.
