Announcing our 2025-26 Season, Carlos Acosta said:

‘Following the Company’s most successful Nutcracker season ever, preparations for our spring 2025 tour of Cinderella are well underway but already we are looking ahead and I am so happy to announce the return of two of the more recent jewels in BRB’s crown, Black Sabbath – The Ballet and Don Quixote.

'Amongst many achievements, these productions are two of which I am possibly most proud as I mark five years with the Company. I continue to honour the memory of my close collaborator and CEO Caroline Miller in my first season without her at my side, and we all remain positive and excited about what lies ahead.‘
