A modern classic, Manon charts the romantic adventures of an irresistibly beautiful femme fatale and her one true love, the impoverished student Des Grieux, from the demi monde of Paris to the bayous of Louisiana. Sir Kenneth has created a dance drama that explores the relationship between love, sex, and the corrupting power of money. The passion and danger of Manon's central pas de deux made it one of the most popular full-length ballets of the second half of the 20th century.
