The Malandain Ballet Biarritz is one of the best ballet companies in France. This ballet uniquely presents a very current dance derived from classical technique.

The masterpieces of the Ballets Russes have continued to inspire choreographers over the years. The music of Igor Stravinsky is no stranger to the success of these mythical ballets, nor to their abundant posterity. It has served as a tremendous stimulus, triggering new creative energies. Today, the Malandain Ballet Biarritz seizes this creative energy, by bringing together a new version of The Firebird by Thierry Malandain and The Rite of Spring by Martin Harriague, associate artist at CCN Malandain Ballet Biarritz, all in the same programme.
