DON QUIXOTE ★★★★
UK tour to March 19, brb.org.uk
Carlos Acosta’s Birmingham Royal Ballet production sumptuously revels in Cervantes’s tale of errant knights and young love. Lavish sets, exuberant choreography, splendid dancing and the stirring Royal Ballet Sinfonia combine for a joyously delightful night of dance that thrilled the Southampton Mayflower before continuing on tour.
