One of the most dramatic and devastating of ballets 💔 Torn between her desire for a life of splendour and her devotion to her true love, Manon's struggle to escape poverty is as poignant now as it was 50 years ago, when it first opened in Covent Garden. Today's matinee performance of Manon is the 300th performance by The Royal Ballet at the Royal Opera House. Watch Manon live in select cinemas from Wednesday 7 February, with Encore screenings from Sunday 11 February. 🎞 Find your nearest cinema
