Following a sold-out premiere at the Royal Opera House, Giselle: Remix – an anarchic, punk-reimagining of classic ballet Giselle, is playing the Pleasance Theatre this April.

From the creative minds of Pleasance Associate Artist and former Roundhouse Resident Artist Jack Sears, and Royal Ballet Soloist Hannah Grennell, Giselle: Remix is an evening of cabaret excellence, theatrical divinity, staggering choreography and jaw-dropping lip-syncs, created in collaboration with dancers from The Royal Ballet.

In this queer, lip-sync cabaret retelling, Giselle is a hopeless romantic, raised on a diet of Julia Roberts and Drew Barrymore 1990’s rom-coms, who comes to realise that the real world of queer sex, hook-ups and heartbreak is a far cry from Hollywood’s happily-ever-after.

What follows is a journey through shame, assimilation, anger, acceptance and – finally – liberation and joy. All performed to a soundtrack of queer icons ranging from Judy to SOPHIE.

Joining Jack Sears and the Dance Troupe will be Queer Icons Kit Green, Jonny Woo, and Lavinia Co-op as guest star performers, alternating appearances across the three week run.

Giselle: Remix is playing at the Pleasance Theatre in London from 11 to 27 April 2024.
