Step back in time and witness the magic of Rudolf Nureyev and Sir Robert Helpmann’s incredible 1973 ballet film. This remarkable time capsule showcases Nureyev at the height of his fame as the handsome Basilio. Choreographed and directed by Nureyev, this production features dazzling costumes, retro sets, and star dancers from the 70s like Lucette Aldous, Francis Croese, and Marilyn Rowe. This production of Don Quixote is a delightfully entertaining peek into ballet history.
