Tamara Rojo reclaimed one of ballet’s timeless classics with this adaptation of Raymonda. Set against the backdrop of the 19th-century Crimean War, Rojo expertly draws on the figure of Florence Nightingale to create a Raymonda who redefines the role of women in wartime and society. This lavish adaptation celebrates the best of Petipa’s original work—with its glorious and sensuous score by Alexander Glazunov showcasing the richness of the SF Ballet Orchestra—and updates it with a dramatic new story.
