When great production gets put together this is exactly the case. This season with the new Royal Ballet European premiere of MADDADDAM<\/em>. This is an audacious creation by resident choreographer Wayne McGregor, inspired by Margaret Atwood’s iconic trilogy. But that’s not all the cast of characters behind this monumental event is as outstanding as the very building the event is housed in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Kevin O\u2019Hare<\/em> steps in, the Royal Ballet goes full-throttle, delivering a show that\u2019s nothing short of an experience. Forget sitting back; MADDADDAM<\/em> is all about diving headfirst into a world where every single visionary<\/em> throws down their A-game.

Wayne McGregor: \u201cTheatres are struggling. They\u2019ve got no resources\u201d PAL HANSEN\/ROYAL OPERA HOUSE<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wayne McGregor <\/em>has reimagined Margaret Atwood’s dystopian world for the stage, with impressionistic choreography that embodies the very essence of the MADDADDAM<\/em> trilogy. Since its premiere in Canada in 2022, this work has evolved. McGregor made significant changes for the Royal Opera House, saying he “refined” the choreography and made “major structural changes”. It is a piece where dance and fiction come together in a space charged with emotion, narrative complexity and visual mystery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Always in search of new artistic horizons, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201ccomplexity of the characters, the temporal changes and the magnitude of the details\u201d in the trilogy<\/em>‘. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDance doesn\u2019t easily transcribe all of this, so I let myself get carried away in this collage approach, fluid and ambiguous,\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wayne McGregor<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This collaboration also marks a fusion of visions between author and choreographer, with Atwood describing her style as a form of \u201cspeculative fiction\u201d, where each element is based on \u201cvery real facts\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, let\u2019s talk Max Richter, the Composer of the Music<\/em>. This guy doesn\u2019t just score music<\/a>; he paints with sound intense and melancholic. His music flows through the show like an emotional rollercoaster, hitting you with lush orchestrations, gritty electronic pulses, and soundscapes that pull you right into the heart of the story. You\u2019ll feel it in your bones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then there\u2019s Gareth Pugh, the Costume Designer<\/em>, and fashion rebel extraordinaire. His costumes are pure, unapologetic attitude bold shapes, wild materials, and more edge than a knife\u2019s blade. These outfits transform each dancer<\/a> into a dystopian warrior or dreamer, reflecting both beauty and chaos. If ever a wardrobe had attitude, it\u2019s this one.<\/p>\n\n\n

Lucy Carter the Lighting Designer<\/em>, sculpts with light, turning the stage into a kaleidoscope of mood and mystery. Her lighting transforms every scene, playing with shadows and colours to capture the emotions of each act. It\u2019s like she\u2019s painting<\/a> in real time, wrapping the stage in a vibe that feels almost alive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And Ravi Deepres the Film Designer<\/em>. He\u2019s the tech wizard, turning the stage into a futuristic canvas. His projections transform the space, pulling you into Atwood\u2019s dystopian universe with surreal landscapes that feel like you could reach out and touch them. You\u2019ll be transported, no plane ticket is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this powerhouse team, MADDADDAM<\/em> isn\u2019t just a ballet<\/a>; it\u2019s an all-senses thrill ride that refuses to be forgotten. Bold, breathtaking, and utterly electrifying buckle up and prepare for a wild journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The We Not I, the Set Designer<\/em>, collective brings the stage to life like a breathing organism. Their set isn\u2019t just a backdrop; it pulses, it vibes. With bold lines and striking materials, they plunge the audience straight into a raw, beautiful, yet unsettling world perfectly capturing Atwood\u2019s essence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uzma Hameed, our Chief Dramaturg<\/em>, weaves each scene to give the ballet massive depth. Every move, every glance matters, under her touch, turning MADDADDAM<\/em> into an epic that captures all the madness, beauty, and intensity of Atwood\u2019s universe.<\/p>\n\n\n

Chris Ekers, Sound System Designer<\/em>, doesn\u2019t just \u201cdesign a sound system.\u201d No way. He pulls us into a sensory experience where every note, every whisper is crafted to be felt in your bones. It\u2019s like sound becomes its own character, drawing you in deeper with every beat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Conductor, Koen Kessels<\/em>, leads the orchestra<\/a> with an energy that\u2019s off the charts. Under his baton, Max Richter\u2019s music<\/a> springs to life with hypnotic force, guiding us closer and closer to MADDADDAM<\/em>\u2019s strange, mesmerizing world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This orchestra doesn\u2019t just play; they embody the music<\/a>. Each note they deliver builds the story, making the soundscape almost part of the set. You can feel the passion in every measure they play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to her, each scene breathes with that unique sense of survival, hope, and transformation she\u2019s crafted so masterfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The collaboration with Margaret Atwood<\/em> is a dream come true for Wayne McGregor<\/em>, whose work is marked by an insatiable curiosity for science and technology, themes omnipresent in the Canadian author’s work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe visual richness of his writing and his fascination with genetic engineering and new technologies touch me deeply”. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through MADDADDAM<\/em>, he pays homage to this speculative vision of the future.<\/p>\n\n\n

In MADDADDAM<\/em>, Margaret Atwood<\/em> invites us into a post-apocalyptic world where survival is an art<\/a>. The story follows the Crakers, a group of genetically engineered beings striving to live in harmony with nature, alongside Toby and Zeb, two resilient survivors navigating the chaos of their shattered civilization. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As they grapple with loss, hope, and the essence of humanity, Atwood<\/em> weaves a tale rich in adventure and philosophical depth, exploring what it truly means to survive and start anew in a world transformed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This production showcases how uniting talents can overcome challenges and create something extraordinary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wayne McGregor<\/em> also addresses institutional challenges that artists face today. A resident of the Royal Ballet for almost twenty years, he speaks of his strategic role at the institution, aiming to <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWiden access for different types of artists. My role is to help put in place structures that facilitate the integration of young choreographers into large houses like this\u201d. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wayne McGregor<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In November, it reminds us that creativity builds bridges. The Royal Ballet is also dedicated to diversifying access to the arts, offering educational programs that inspire young talent and encourage participation.<\/p>\n\n\n
