Joby Talbot's Winter's Tale nominated for Olivier and South Bank Awards
Joby Talbot’s ballet The Winter’s Tale has been nominated for an Outstanding Achievement in Dance award in the 2015 Olivier Awards and the Dance award in the South Bank Sky Arts Awards 2015. Christopher Wheeldon’s choreography has been described as ‘audaciously giving Shakespeare’s notoriously difficult play a dance makeover’.



'Winter's Tale is one of the most fully achieved story ballets to be created at the Royal in years.'
Judith Mackrell, The Guardian, 4/11/2014
