In astronomy, the term KONSTELLATIONEN (‘constellation’) describes the relative positions of celestial bodies as seen from Earth. This concept can be applied to works of art in general, or more specifically to ballets, and so the ballet evening KONSTELLATIONEN sets out on a kind of expedition. The exploration focuses on how five or six shorter ballets or excerpts from ballets relate to one another when deliberately juxtaposed. For KONSTELLATIONEN, Laurent Hilaire has selected pieces whose choreographers have a special connection to the State Ballet’s repertoire or whose works have already been performed in Munich.
