In a showcase for the genius of The Royal Ballet’s Resident Choreographer, this collection brings together some of Wayne McGregor’s most outstanding and internationally acclaimed works, comprising Chroma, Infra, Limen (recorded 2008), Woolf Works (2017) and The Dante Project (2021).

The diversity of Wayne McGregor’s astonishing invention is demonstrated first through Chroma, Infra and Limen. Intimate yet universal, both light and dark, vigorous and lyrical, these three ballets reveal McGregor’s passion for exploring the inner workings of the human body and mind, providing visual, sensual and kinesthetic stimulus for the viewer. Woolf Works, McGregor’s first full-length work for The Royal Ballet, the distinctive stream-of-consciousness writing of Virginia Woolf takes new form in a work of luminous beauty. Inspired by another celebrated literary figure, The Dante Project follows an epic journey through the afterlife, a monumental reinvention of Dante Alighieri’s The Divine Comedy, by turns terrifying, poetic and dazzling.

McGregor’s gift for collaboration lies at the heart of his practice and is demonstrated here with an extraordinary team of trailblazing artistic minds, including Thomas Adès, Tacita Dean, Max Richter, Julian Opie and John Pawson. This collection also affords viewers a prized opportunity to admire the remarkable artistry of Royal Ballet dancers past and present.
