We are pleased to announce below updates in the
programs A and B to be performed at the 16th World Ballet (Friday 13
- Sunday 22 August).
We also announce that it has become necessary
to make some cast changes. Under the influence of emigration and immigration
restrictions in each country imposed due to COVID-19, David Hallberg, Isaac
Hernández, Sarah Lamb, Tamara Rojo and Diana Vishneva are unable to participate
in the Festival. Due to injury, Marianela Núñez is unable to take part in. However,
we are pleased to inform that Fumi Kaneko (Principal, The Royal Ballet) and
Svetlana Zakharova (Principal, The Bolshoi Ballet, only in Program A) will be
participating.
We apologize to our valued audiences who have
been anticipating the original casting and program, but appreciate everyone's
kind understanding for the unavoidable situation.
Program A 13, 14, 15, 16 August 2021
