The Australian Ballet

The Australian Ballet is getting ready to celebrate its origins with a season of pivotal ballets from its formative years. 

Icons will showcase a triple bill of works commissioned over three decades: Robert Helpmann's The Display, Glen Tetley's Gemini and Graeme Murphy's Beyond Twelve.
 
Each of these works marked a turning point in The Australian Ballet's history, and they're now getting ready to be rediscovered by new audiences in the same light, as the company celebrates its 50th anniversary season. 

Icons will head to the State Theatre from August 30 – September 8 for 11 performances. To book, head to australianballet.com.au or 1300 369 741.
