The 150th anniversary of Ravel’s birth. Noism’s version of ”Boléro”, a hymn to life.

A completely new production directed and choreographed by Jo Kanamori, using Bizet’s incidental music “L’Arlésienne”.
Jo Kanamori, who has previously breathed new life into various stories such as “CARMEN” (2014), “La Bayadère – nation of illusion” (2016) and “ROMEO & JULIETS” (2018), was inspired by a play based on a short story by Alphonse Daudet, and creates a new story different from those that have been performed by ballet companies and operas in Japan and abroad. At the same time, “Boléro”, which has been performed live at the RYUTOPIA Sylvester Concert 2023 and SaLaD Music Festival 2024, will be presented in a new theatre version.
