Hello, Could somebody please tell me if they show ballets in the new opera house in Denmark?

Rosie, I hope that this is not too late for you. I was in both theaters during the 2005 Bournonville Festival. Of course, the festival performances were held in the 'old' theater, which is idea for ballet. During a tour of the new & larger opera house, we were told that ballets are also being staged there. It's an ultra-modern venue with state-of-the-art stage mechanics, an impressive auditorium with 'Queens box' similar to the one in the old theater (but modern in style), and a ballet studio with a wonderful springy floor. If at all possible, try to attend shows in both theaters.

As far as I know, the only ballet performed in the new Opera house's big stage is Neumeier's "The little Mermaid". I suppose because it is a new production which is made for a bigger stage. Otherwise, it has been operas on that stage.

Just keep your eyes and ears open smile.gif
