The Scottish Ballet is sharing the stage with the Royal New Zealand Ballet, making its first visit to the South Pacific for performances in Wellington and Auckland.
The Scottish ballet was one of the first to instigate intimacy coaches, important for performing dance based on classic texts, such as Streetcar Named Desire, which it's bringing to the Auckland Arts Festival.
It's a homecoming of sorts for maverick artistic director and CEO Christopher Hampson, who has a reputation for pushing ballet boundaries and who has worked with the RNZ Ballet in the past.
