Free Stream: Don Quixote The Royal Ballet

Don Quixote in full from The Royal Ballet

This Christmas, stream The Royal Ballet’s production of Don Quixote via the Royal Opera House YouTube channel – from our house to your house.

Don Quixote is one of Marius Petipa’s much-loved 19th-century classics – its story is drawn from Miguel de Cervantes’s classic novel and set to Ludwig Minkus’s score.

The ballet has long been acclaimed for its virtuoso dancing, beautiful and technically demanding ‘vision scene’ and the famously bravura and breath-taking Act III pas de deux.

The production will be available to watch from 25 December 2020-6 January 2021. We will also be streaming The Royal Opera’s The Magic Flute over the same period. Enjoy this video? Subscribe to our channel to receive notifications about new ballet and opera clips.

Support the future of live performance

Live performance is a shared experience, and our audiences are at the heart of everything we do.

Each time we are required to close our doors, we lose £3 in every £5 of our income, and London’s most recent move into Tier 4 means we have had to close to live audiences for the third time this year.

We are deeply grateful for the significant and vital loan support from Arts Council England and DCMS through the Culture Recovery Fund, but unfortunately the Royal Opera House cannot survive on this funding alone.

In order for us to come together in our beautiful building and share the performances that transport, delight and inspire, we urgently need your help. Please support the future of live performance and make a gift to the Royal Opera House Recovery Campaign today.

A gift of £65 could buy one week of antiviral fogging which will help keep our building sanitised and safe.

A £130 donation could pay for one week of hand sanitiser, which would enable essential staff and artists to continue their work during this time of closure.

A donation of £1,400 could allow us to purchase an entire week of PPE needed for artists and staff to work safely.
