Summary:
"Originally created for the Ballet du Capitole in 2011, ... is Kader Belarbi's spectacular ballet, based on Montherlant's play of the same name. The story follows Don Pedro, Prince of Portugal, who has fallen in love with Doña Inés de Castro, a lady-in-waiting of the Infanta--Pedro's would-be wife. The sweethearts are married in secret, to the fury of the king, and the ensuing drama combines events in the real world with the two lover's dreams and visions."--Container.
