Led by the company’s artistic director David Bintley, Birmingham Royal Ballet makes a return to Sadler’s Wells with two programmes.

Beauty And The Beast tells the classic tale of a beautiful girl and her beastly captor, and their discovery of the meaning of true love.

This fairytale of passion and prejudice is choreographed by David Bintley, who weaves some delightful new twists into this timeless fable.

Stravinsky: A Celebration! pays homage to the great composer Igor Stravinsky. Based on Russian legend, the enthralling Firebird is performed alongside Petrushka, a story of a rebellious puppet's bid for love and freedom, and Michael Corder's brand new version of Le Baiser De La Fée, based on Hans Christian Andersen's The Ice Maiden.

Beauty and The Beast: Tuesday 28 – Thursday 30 October
Stravinsky: A Celebration! – Friday 31 October & Saturday 1 November
