The Christopher Wheeldon Collection [3x Blu-ray]

The Christopher Wheeldon Collection is a dazzling example of the theatrical imagination of the Royal Ballet's artistic associate, Christopher Wheeldon. With a stellar creative team including designer Bob Crowley and composer Joby Talbot, he brings to life three famous works of fiction that appear as vividly on screen as they do on stage in the theater in this collection.

Lewis Carroll's much-loved story forms the basis for Wheeldon's spectacular production of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, which has been delighting audiences around the world since the ballet premiered in 2011.

In The Winter's Tale, created in 2013, Wheeldon reinterprets Shakespeare's story of jealousy, compassion and forgiveness, effortlessly capturing the profound emotions of the work.

For his most recent ballet (2022), Wheeldon drew inspiration from Laura Esquivel's Mexican classic Like Water for Chocolate, in which the protagonist Tita's emotions spill over as she cooks, affecting everyone around her in startling and dramatic ways.

These three captivating ballets, which conjure up alternately whimsical and dramatic worlds, are not to be missed.
