Royal New Zealand Ballet Tickets

What a fantastic show that the New Zealand Ballet developed to entertain our young children (and adults). The ballerinas were so expressive and the children got really involved with the story being told. The show wasn't too long which was good for the young ones. Please do bring more shows like this back to the regions.

Our kids loved their first ballet. Great length - ie. not too long! Fun story, music, moves and costumes.

I go to all the NZ ballet productions. This one disappointed me. I did not like the re-telling of Macbeth as a contemporary story. I love the Shakespeare play and the ballet did not do it justice, in my view. The contemporary settings, costumes etc did not work in this instance, for me. However, the quality of the dancing was superb as always and I do appreciate the sheer energy and dedication that the dancers put into it.

This performance was a visual and auditory feast, from the stunning set design, the fluid, sensual dance sequences, to the powerful music. Absolutely loved it - was extremely memorable.

The choreography and ballerinas and Bellarose were just incredible. I’m not normally a fan of contemporary ballet but this is one of the best performances of ballet I’ve seen. With my schoolboy knowledge of Macbeth I thoroughly enjoyed interpreting the dance and being taken on the journey through the wonderful and incredible performance by the troop. The choreographer and the designer really out shone themselves and we’re fantastic if you get a chance you must go and see Macbeth truly a wonderful show thoroughly enjoyed our evening well done everybody!

An absolutely stunning production. From the masterly score to the set design, costumes and especially the dancers, this was a wonderful experience.

It was SO WELL DONE! Amazingly stylish & clever. A really original re-imagining of the story that stayed aligned with every plot point. Music, costumes, set & staging were all incredibly cool. The whole audience was gasping at every dramatic moment, it was literally breath-taking! A very powerful & deeply creative work of art. Loved the gender-neutral casting too!

How exciting was that. A superbly choreographed ballet full of twists and turns, both theoretical and physical, with not a tutu in sight. Loved it.

This was a fabulous interpretaion of a play that I have become familiar with as a teachertaught to a range of classes in three schools. The concept of a corporate world with Macbeth destined for high office, and a group of influencers playing their part in encouraging his ambition, are superbly developed during the performance. In this, Alice Topp's choreography was brilliantly complemented by composer Christopher Gordon's score, a score ranging from heavy metal to big band and swing. The performances of Principal, Ana Gallardo Lobaina as Lady Macbeth, and Soloist Branden Reiners as Macbeth are superb. If you get a chance to see the ballet, do go. It will be a performance you will forever remember.

Wonderful performance! Huge congratulations to the Cast and Crew. Nga mihi nui
